Křinické náměstí (Křinické square)

The square got its modern look after an expensive reconstruction in 2010. It is framed by a diverse mixture of houses, which remain as a reminder of the several historical shifts that occurred in the town. Here we can find one of the oldest buildings in Krásná Lípa, beautiful townhouses, and also valuable subjects of modern architecture. The rivulet Křinice, which springs from the forests above the town and flows through the square, symbolically resembles the surface of a stone trough, set as a mosaic in the pavement, over which stretches a small bridge, guarded by the four elements. The academic painter, Herbert Kizsa from Kadaň, created the sandstone statues of Earth, Air, Water, and Sun. The modern fountain, tasteful furniture, and precise park adjustments invite one to peaceful seating. In 2010 after the reconstruction, the Křinické square won the title of Transport Construction of the Year.

The Saint Magdalene Church

It stands on the hillside above the plaza on the place of the original small church from 1361. The baroque look we see today comes from the year 1754 when Mister Hoffman from Lípova began renovations. In 1777 a tower was built, then, between 1816 -1818 a monumental staircase was built in front of the church. In the interior, we can find many beautiful altars and pulpits in the baroque, rococo, and classicist styles. The pews are in the rococo style. The staircase is decorated with a large cross, sculpted in 1818 from one piece of stone. In the former graveyard, which surrounds the church, we can find two surviving rococo tombstones from the years 1792 and 1794, along with others classicistic tombstones from the turn of the 19th century. The post-baroque vicarage with attic roof belongs to the church as well. In its garden is a statue of Saint Barbara from the year 1812. In the second half of the 19th century, there was a hill called Křížový was established with a chapel and cross stations. Unfortunately, it was destroyed.

The House at Frido, 4 Křinické náměstí

The oldest surviving house in the city is a textbook example of a combination of a baroque village timbered house with a base of a half-timbered house with wooden arcades. It was built in 1729 and used to be a center for local barber-surgeons, bonesetters, and the Zillichs. Development of health care in Krásná Lípa and the surrounding area is connected with the name Philipp Zillich. He was the first one in Czech who started vaccinating against smallpox in 1801. The house, which was almost demolished in the 1990's, has been reconstructed.

The Lion Sculpture

It was unveiled in 1908 on the occasion of the 60th Jubilee of Franz Joseph the First reign and the 50th anniversary of the establishment of the Association of Veterans in Krásná Lípa. The sculpture represents the Czech lion tearing up the Prussian eagle. It used to have a bronze memorial plaque on its granite pedestal from 1866 that had the names of fallen soldiers from the Austro-Prussian War. The creator was Klement Grundig from Dresden. The Dresden firm Brinling cast the statue for 30,000 Czech crowns.

The town’s park, 10.6 hectares

It was initially established (between the years 1888 and 1889) as a private park surrounding the mausoleum of Carl Dittrich’s family. Contemporary garden reconstruction, which took place between the years 2004 and 2006, divided the original park into the town park and a forest park. There are meandering rivulets, small ponds, well-tended paths, outlooks, gazebos and rest areas.

Carl Dittrich’s Family Mausoleum

The neo-renaissance mausoleum was built in the years 1888-1889 with a size of 10x10x10 meters and a unique heating system. Currently, it is not in good condition and talks are being held about its recovery.
