Karel Klostermann

[1] Klostermann was born on 13 February 1848 in Haag am Hausruck, Upper Austria.

He first wrote his works in German; later he turned to the Czech language and wrote novellas about the inhabitants of the middle Bohemian Forest.

This can be found in the collection V srdci šumavských hvozdů ("In the heart of the Bohemian Forest").

Some of his novellas are set in and around the town of Kašperské Hory.

Klostermann died on 17 July 1923 in Štěkeň, at the age of 75.
