Hřensko, Border municipality in Děčín District, Czech Republic.
Hřensko sits at the confluence of Kamenice and Elbe rivers, featuring forested hills and deep valleys within Bohemian Switzerland National Park.
The settlement originated as a trade post in 1488, developing into a village where river transport and forestry formed the primary economic activities.
The Church of Saint John of Nepomuk, constructed between 1786 and 1787, represents late Baroque architecture with its characteristic design elements.
Two border crossings connect Hřensko to Germany: the Hřensko-Schmilka road crossing and the Hřensko-Schöna river crossing for international transport.
At 130 meters above sea level, Hřensko holds the distinction of being the lowest elevation municipality in the Czech Republic.
