View of Božídarský Špičák (Gottesgaber Spitzberg)

Highlight • Viewpoint

Three kilometers southwest of Boží Dar lies the volcanically formed Božídarsky Špičak (God's Spitsbergen). At 1,116 meters, it is the second-highest peak in the Czech part of the Ore Mountains after the nearby Klínovec (Keilberg, 1,244 meters), and—surpassed by the Fichtelberg (1,214 meters) on the Saxon side—the third-highest peak in the entire Ore Mountains.

Since 1965, the Božídarské Peat Bog Nature Reserve has protected an 11.61 square kilometer series of raised bogs with spruce, pine, Scots pine, dwarf birch, heaths, and meadows. A carnivorous plant characteristic of peat bogs, the round-leaved sundew, also grows here. The largest peat bog in the Ore Mountains lies at an elevation of 940 to 1116 meters; its specific mountain climate creates challenging conditions for animals and plants.

The small river Černá (Black Water) rises west of the Fichtelberg in Saxony, then flows into Czech territory and along the northern border of the Božídarské rašeliniště nature reserve. The river gets its name from the dark water, rich in humic substances, flowing from the numerous surrounding bogs. After 18.6 kilometers in the Czech Republic, the river flows back to Saxony and finally into the Zwickauer Mulde near Aue.

Nikos Kazantzakis Monument

Highlight • Monument

This monument in the park at the town hall honors Nikos Kazantzakis (1883 to 1957), a Greek novelist, poet, and playwright who lived and worked in a nearby forestry building from 1929 to 1931. His most famous work is the novel "Zorba the Younger," which was made into a film in 1964 with Anthony Quinn in the title role.

Boží Dar Town Hall

Highlight • Monument

The town hall of Boží Dar stands on the central square of the town, which regained town status on October 10, 2006. It was built here between 1844 and 1845 in the late Classicist style, after the old town hall was destroyed in the great fire of 1808 (along with 104 other houses, the rectory, and the school). Its distinctive feature is the octagonal tower with a dome on the hipped roof. With 255 inhabitants, Boží Dar is the fourth smallest town in the Czech Republic, but also the highest in the country. In 1930, Boží Dar had 916 inhabitants, 887 of whom were Germans, 19 Czechoslovakians, and ten foreigners.

St. Anna Church, Boží Dar

Highlight • Religious Site

The third church building in the history of the mining town of Boží Dar (Gottesgab) was built in 1771 in the late Baroque style according to plans by the Prague architect Filip Heger. Previously, a wooden early Renaissance church had stood here since the 1630s, followed by a stone late Renaissance church from 1593 onwards. This church burned down in the mid-18th century and was replaced by the current church building. By the end of the 1960s, the church was in such poor condition that it had to be closed to the public for safety reasons. A fundraising campaign made the necessary repairs and the reopening of St. Anne's Church possible in 2016. Located at an altitude of 1,020 metres above sea level, it is not only the highest church in the Ore Mountains, the third highest church in the Czech Republic, and one of the highest town churches in all of Central Europe.
