Nature

Ryžovna can be reached on foot, by bicycle or by car via a tourist route.

History and Culture

Ryžovna was founded around the middle of the 16th century. The village takes its name from the washing of tin ore from gravelly sediment. St. Wenceslas Church in Ryžovna was built in the Josephine style at the beginning of the 19th century. A memorial cross, a miniature of St. Wenceslas Church and a memorial plaque on a stone mound mark the former site of St. Wenceslas Church.

Every year, St. Wenceslas gatherings are held in Ryžovna on the occasion of the Feast of St. Wenceslas. The Ryžovna war memorial to those who fell in the First World War was erected in 1930. It commemorates a total of 42 soldiers from Ryžovna who fell, died or went missing.

Paths in the Ore Mountains

The Cínová stezka, known in German as Zinnweg, runs between Boží Dar and Ryžovna. The route was created as a symbol of cross-border cooperation between the Czech Republic and Saxony. The associated project aimed to preserve, protect and further develop the natural and cultural heritage, as well as to improve the tourist visitor infrastructure in the central Ore Mountains.

A nature trail with 23 stops runs along the Blatenský vodní příkop for approximately 12 kilometres. The Blatenský vodní příkop ran from the Božídarské rašeliniště via Myslivny and Ryžovna to Bludná.
