Na Hrobech, Wayside cross in Chvalčov, Czech Republic
Na Hrobech is a stone cross standing in the landscape of Chvalčov where a path divides in the open countryside. The simple monument sits in a quiet rural area where it has been part of the surroundings for centuries.
The cross received official recognition as a cultural monument of the Czech Republic in 1994. This protection preserved its standing and made its place in the region's heritage clear.
This cross is a familiar landmark in the Czech countryside and shows how local people connected their faith to the land they lived on. Passersby and residents see it as part of their everyday surroundings and local identity.
The cross sits away from main roads and is easy to reach from walking paths in the area. Visitors should bring sturdy shoes and warm clothes since the ground can get slippery when wet.
The name 'Na Hrobech' comes from an old Czech word that refers to burial sites or graves. Names like this kept the memory of events that happened long before the cross was even built.
