Radyně- Hrad · STORY FROM THE ATLAS

The Petrified Extortioner

A great treasure lay hidden beneath Radyně, guarded by the cursed ghost of a miserly usurer in the form of a dog. Once he supposedly escaped and ran towards Rokycany. But there he turned to stone and became Vydřiduch Hill on the road from Rokycany to Holoubkov.
