Ostrov Nad Oslavou · STORY FROM THE ATLAS

The Old Oven

Beside the Oslava towards Kněževes lies a solitary flat boulder on a slope, about twelve metres long and slightly curved. A passage beneath it was much larger in old times and could be entered. The passage and whole slope are called the Old Oven; in Ostrov, people said wild women lived there.
