Culture and History
The Chapel of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary, built in 1867, stands in the cadastral area of Nové Hraběcí. The Zeckelův kříž was erected by Josef Reintsch along the road connecting the Císařský railway station with Nové Hraběcí. The cross probably dates from the second half of the 19th century and stands on the ridge beside a path on the green-marked route from Šluknov zastávka railway station to Nové Hraběcí. The section between Šluknov zastávka railway station and Nové Hraběcí is classified as moderately difficult.
A memorial to the victims of the world wars stands on the road from Šluknov to Nové Hraběcí, as well as on the green-marked hiking route and cycle route 3043. The marked cycle route 3043 runs through Nové Hraběcí; the cycling route leads via Nové Hraběcí to the Lipová–Sohland border crossing.
The historic German name of Nové Hraběcí was Neu Grafenwalde. The addition “Nové” distinguishes the settlement from Staré Hraběcí. After the Císařský estate was dissolved in 1730, the agricultural buildings in Nové Hraběcí were sold off in parcels and converted into homes. In 1736, many farmers moved from Křečany to Hraběcí because they were burdened by obligations connected with the construction of the local church; as a result, the community grew rapidly.
