Skalná

Skalná consists of five municipal parts (in brackets population according to the 2021 census):[2] The original German name Wildstein (i.e. 'wild rock') is most likely derived from the location of the town on a rocky promontory, and from the abundance of game in the forests.

The highest point is the hill Lužský vrch at 606 m (1,988 ft) above sea level.

Skalná is known for the Soos National Nature Reserve, which is nicknamed "Czech Yellowstone".

[9] The Church of Saint John the Baptist was originally a Gothic structure founded by the Teutonic Order, first mentioned in 1320.

Two ground-floor rooms (probably a prison), perimeter walls and the rest of the corner tower have been preserved from the old castle.
