The distinctive rock formation, also known as the Stone Organ, is one of the Czech Republic's most famous natural monuments. It has been protected since 1895 as the country's oldest geological protected area. The almost perfectly formed five- and six-sided basalt columns rise into the sky like the pipes of a giant organ, making the place a true geological wonder. Accordingly, it can get very crowded here, so it's best to visit early in the morning or in the evening!

The current appearance of the three-aisled Baroque church with its square tower, whose façade is decorated with statues of St. Wenceslas and St. Blazei, was only achieved through reconstruction in the second half of the 19th century. The original parish church of St. Wenceslas was probably located in a completely different location, unknown to historians. The first written mention of the church dates back to 1368, which, however, does not reveal anything fundamental, even though it represents a turning point. The earlier Gothic church was unfortunately destroyed by fire in 1749. Reconstruction began in 1751, but the church was not returned to its original purpose until 1878. In 1927, the Chapel of Our Lady of Help, dating from 1726, was moved from across the street to the church. In 1939, the Chapel of St. Anne, dating from 1730 and originally located on Anenské Street, was built into the north wall of the church. See: https://www.idecin.cz/de/kirchen

Děčín Castle (German: Tetschner Schloss) is located on a rocky ridge near the Elbe River in the town of Děčín (Tetschen) in the Czech Republic. The castle dates back to a fortification built by the Přemyslids at the end of the 10th century (mentioned in 1128) to control shipping on the Elbe. In the 13th century, the wooden structure was converted into a stone castle and expanded. The Bünaus converted the complex into a Renaissance castle in the 16th century, but were forced to sell it to the von Thun family after the Thirty Years' War because of their Protestant faith. The von Thuns occupied the castle until 1932, then sold it to the state for financial reasons and relocated to Jílové (Eulau). See: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schloss_D%C4%9B%C4%8D%C3%ADn
