History

Malá Štáhle was founded around 1540 by Josef Pňovský of Sovinec. Heaps of slate fragments bear witness in the village to the numerous former slate quarries.

The educational trail tracing the history of slate mining near Malá Štáhle presents the history and remains of local slate mining.

Wallhübel

Wallhübel was located about half a kilometre from present-day Malá Štáhle on the left bank of the Moravice. The site is not signposted and is difficult to identify in the terrain. Wallhübel may have served as a defensive structure guarding a ford across the Moravice, which lay along a presumed historical route between Silesia and Moravia.

Nature

The floodplain of the meandering Moravice also encompasses the cadastral area of Malá Štáhle. It is a breeding and refuge area for birds on an important Central European migration route.
