Where Three States Meet and Divide East and West

Trojmezí, also known as Trojstátí, is a unique place where three states converge – the Czech Republic, Bavaria, and Saxony. This magical place is an important symbol of historical borders and simultaneously connects Eastern and Western cultures. Prepare for an adventure and explore this fascinating location.

History and Culture:

Trojmezí has a rich history, and its original name "Gottmannsgrün" still resonates in the memories of the local inhabitants. It was the first settlement in the Hranicko region, and today, around 30 people call it home. The place is filled with historical landmarks, including the former border guard garrison, memorials dedicated to fallen soldiers, and remnants of structures from the Sudeten period.

Natural Beauty:

Trojmezí is situated in the beautiful landscape of the protected area Bystřina – Lužní potok. Here, you'll find a reservoir that is home to river crabs, kingfishers, and pond newts. It's a paradise for nature enthusiasts. The path to Trojstátí is lined with majestic trees and offers beautiful views of the landscape.

References to the Past:

During your walk to Trojstátí, you will come across remnants of mill canals, mills, and hideouts of the border guards from the totalitarian era. A millstone is embedded in a local wall, serving as a reminder of the miller's guild. A peace cross and an iron ore mine tunnel are additional historical remnants to discover during your journey.

Trojstátí:

The actual point of Trojstátí is not marked, as it lies in a streambed between historical boundary stones. However, the boundary stones from 1844, marked with DB (Deutschland Bayern), DS (Deutschland Sachsen), and C (Czech Republic), clearly indicate where these three states converge. This place is an important symbol of unity and historical division.

Getting There:

Trojstátí is accessible via cycling route No. 2058, the red hiking trail, or an educational path. The route takes you through untouched landscapes and offers unique insights into the historical and natural treasures of this region.

 

Come and discover Trojmezí/Trojstátí, where three states meet, and history breathes in every stone. This place will enchant you with its uniqueness and beauty.

Mineral spring in Doubrava – Century Spring

Traffic:

On foot, bike, car

Distance from IC:

8,2 km

Opening hours:

No

The spring is to be found in the village of Doubrava, at the point where the yellow-marked hiking trail crosses the brook of Bílý Halštrov. The spring has existed there from/ since time immemorial and in 1972 a brick was built there.

In 2008, the town of Aš had the spring examined and it was found out that the spring had healing properties. In 2009, the spring in Doubrava was consecrated by an Orthodox and Metropolitan Archbishop Christopher. Subsequently, the spring was renamed the Century Spring. After being compared with another one, the spring was found to have the same composition as the Green Spring located in the neighbouring German town of Bad Elster.

Thanks to that, the village of Doubrava may, in the future, compete with the neighbouring spa towns. The planned revitalization of Doubrava shall bring in spa spirit and thus Doubrava may turn into a pleasant spa town.

The spring is also very useful in spa treatment of cardiovascular as well as circulatory system diseases, musculoskeletal disorders and it is also used in treatment of kidney diseases and urinary system disorders.

The Spring Bílý Halštrov is a very popular place for tourists.

It is located approximately 6 km from the town of Aš. The spring flows into the dam of Bílý Halštrov near the village of Podhradí, and then it flows further into Doubrava and Germany where it turns into the river Weisse Elster, which also runs through the spa town of Bad Elster. The length of the river in our country is 11.1 km.
In 1898, a monument was erected near the spring Bílý Halštrof, and in the 1990s, this place was converted into a rest area with benches.
