Culture

The Church of Saint Leonard, including its surrounding wall and ambits, is a registered immovable cultural monument. The ambits around the church were built in 1734 to protect pilgrims from bad weather. Horní Studénky is also home to a column with a statue of the Holy Trinity, which is likewise registered as an immovable cultural monument. At the lower end of the village stands a rustic chapel made from a tree trunk. It is associated with a local legend about the fortunate discovery of a statue of the Virgin Mary.
