The Mysteries of Stochov

Beside the road from Stochov to Nové Strašecí stands a stone chapel with St Wenceslas’s Spring, enclosed by an iron grille. Its water is considered healing, as many local stories attest. A White Lady’s ghost appears beside the chapel, shrouded in a pillar of mist. A great fiery carriage drawn by flaming horses was also once seen here.
