In 1710 Earl Alois asked to build a hospital in Horni Branna for all his old servants. This building kept its shape until 1878, after that it was reconstructed. The conserved portal still bears the Harrachov signature and emblem. In 1987 the building was demolished and rebuild to its present appearance, faithfully reproducing the historic features and purpose: it still is a nursing home for elderly poeple.
