There are located a lot of graves at this place. They are laid out in a circle, between the church and the cloister.
Just click on the picture to see them, because the picture is rather small and you will have a better view when you enlarge it!

And you can find names like "Hrdlicka", "Dvorak", "Machacek" but also "Eisenberg", "Maier" an "Kruger" on the tombstones .... That reminded me very much to my home Austria.....
Reading the inscripts of tombstones can be very interesting ....
So maybe this is not only a czech graveyard, but also a european one!

But please be silent because there come always people to pray on the graves and you should also do it to pay reference to the people who rest here.
I photographed it from backside, so maybe so if you would like to see the details, you have to click on the picture!

It looks so peaceful and silent here! This place must be also wonderful in winter, when all the grave and this amazing church is covered with snow ...
Maybe I should go there on a wonderful winter day.... it is not soo far from my home at all.
And again, please feel free to enlarge the picture!

Most of the graves are very small due to the less space which is between the church and the cloister.
It was interesting to see that there were less people although this place can be find in EVERY czech tourist information booklet ...
The graves are wonderful and if you have luck, you will get some suneshine as well and many colourful photos!

You can find graves of the local people but also graves from outside and you can study there what kind of people lived there in former times ...
and after that you will realize that there is not such a big difference between Czechia, Slovakia and Austria!

A church and a graveyard on a greeny hill
Zelena Hora (Green Mountain) is located near Zdár nad Sázavou in South Moravia. It is just a hill but there are interesting things to see like this church ....

Zelena Hora - a masterpiece by Santini
Zelena Hora is an interesting example of a gothic-baroque-church I had never heared of this place, before I saw the great pics of Manfred (MEdelmann) on his Zelena Hora-page... ...and so I decided...
