Vyšní Lhoty

Vyšní Lhoty (German: Ober Ellgoth, Polish: Ligota Górna) is a municipality and village in Frýdek-Místek District in the Moravian-Silesian Region of the Czech Republic.

The adjective Vyšní, originally Hornÿ (i.e. "Upper") was used to differentiate it from the older nearby sister settlement called originally Dolny neb Spodny Lhota, today Nižní Lhoty ("Lower Lhoty").

[3] This village itself was then mentioned in a Latin document of Diocese of Wrocław called Liber fundationis episcopatus Vratislaviensis from around 1305, however it is disputed by some historians if it really is today's Vyšní Lhoty.

[3] Surely it was mentioned in 1584 as Hornÿ Lhota in the document sealing the selling of Friedeck state country by Stanislav II Pavlovský, Bishop of Olomouc, to Bartholomew of Wrbno.

The most important monument is the Church of Saint Anthony of Padua, located on the Malá Prašivá mountain.
