Malý Chlum, Observation tower in Blansko District, Czech Republic

Malý Chlum was a small all-wooden observation tower on the 489 m summit of the hill of the same name in the Boskovická brázda, in the Krhov cadastre. It stood under 10 m tall, with two hexagonal viewing platforms, the higher about 7 m up, reached by ladders. It was opened on 20 August 2005 and demolished in March 2026.

A wooden tower was built on Malý Chlum in 2005 by the carpenter Jan Opatřil of Doubravice nad Svitavou, initiated by the Svitava association of municipalities and the South Moravian Region, and opened on 20 August 2005. It stood under 10 m tall with two hexagonal platforms reached by ladders. It was closed from March 2024 and demolished in March 2026; a new 15 m steel-and-wood tower is planned.

The hill is nicknamed "Moravian Říp" and holds a Hallstatt hillfort site; it was earlier called Holý vrch. The tower opened on 20 August 2005, built by carpenter Jan Opatřil of Doubravice nad Svitavou for the Svitava municipalities association and the South Moravian Region.

The tower stood on Malý Chlum (489 m) above Krhov, reached by the red hiking trail: 4.5 km from Lysice, or 3.5 km from Doubravice nad Svitavou station via Obora and Huť Svaté Antonie. Drivers park at Huť Sv. Antonie and walk the last 1 km past the quarry. It was closed from March 2024 and demolished in March 2026; a new 15 m steel-and-wood tower is planned on the site.

The hill was called Holý vrch before it gained the nickname "Moravian Říp"; a Hallstatt hillfort stood on the flat summit, and during the First Republic a military observation post operated here until 1940. The wooden tower of 2005 replaced that lookout tradition.
