In the cadastral area of Slemeno lies the Bratrská borovice, a memorial site associated with gatherings of the Bohemian Brethren. According to local tradition, Jan Amos Comenius said farewell there before going into exile. Today, only a fragment of an old pine tree remains; according to local tradition, it is said to have been up to five centuries old.
