Hermitage of St. Francis in Dvorce, Hermitage in Bor forest near Lysá nad Labem, Czech Republic

The Hermitage of St. Francis stands within dense woodland, featuring a chapel and a two-story building called Salettl with rooms for nobility and servants.

Count František Antonín Špork commissioned this Baroque hermitage as a hunting retreat, with construction dates varying between 1692 and 1717.

The site includes a commemorative statue of Saint Francis of Assisi's stigmatization, representing the strong Catholic heritage of the region.

Located at coordinates 50.204639N, 14.781959E, visitors can reach the hermitage by following forest paths approximately 1 kilometer west of Dvorce village.

The original hermitage structure was replaced by a pavilion, which Lesy ČR restored in 2008 to preserve the memory of this historical site.
