The highest mountain in Bohemia (1602 m). The oldest building is the St. Lawrence chapel built in 1655-1681 by the Silesian nobleman Schaffgotsch, the owner of the northern hillsides of the Krkonoše. On the summit is the highest post office in the Czech Republic - postal stamps are available still today.
