Locus perennis, Technical monument in Lišov, Czech Republic

The Locus perennis monument features a two-meter pyramidal structure with three distinct sections, positioned at an elevation of 564.7 meters above sea level.

Established in 1890, this benchmark was one of nine original survey points constructed throughout Austria-Hungary to measure elevation levels in the Czech lands.

The monument represents a crucial element of Czech engineering heritage, serving as the last remaining example of the original Austro-Hungarian surveying system.

Located along the main route between České Budějovice and Třeboň, the monument includes a rest area for travelers and marks the beginning of several hiking paths.

The site contains precise leveling markings built into the structure, used historically for European measurements with reference to sea level in Trieste.
