The Golden Spring

Above the village rises Neštětická hora (547 m), known for the peasants’ uprising against Pavel Michna of Vacínov, then owner of Konopiště, in 1627. A small spring once glittered with gold there by day and night. It later dried up, but its site remains visible on the hill, though few people know it today.
