Králický Sněžník
|
Králický Sněžník, the grand massif and third highest mountain range in the Czech Republic. Primeval times the borders between Bohemia, Moravia and foreigners– firstly the Prussians, then the Germans, now the Polish. We remember the area in several literary works and films, as a loved, deserted and newly discovered place. Králický Sněžník, Grulicher Schneeberg, Spieglitzer Schneeberg, Sniežnik Kladzki, this is just a selection of the of the many terms used in various languages. Place with extraordinarily beautiful natural attributes, incredible views and an absolute haven of quiet and human humbleness in the presence of powers greater than that of man. Place where we allow the Genius loci to take its affect on us– from the ruins of the old viewing tower of the Emperor William on the peak of the Králický Sněžník dating back to the beginning of the 20th century, through the extensive system of the borderland fortress from before World War II, all the way to the peak of Klepy, referred to as the roof of Europe, in the centuries’ old rhythm of dividing water into three seas. |
