Nature
Above Dlažov lies the Svatá Markéta site at an altitude of 642 metres above sea level. People have been coming to the hill since time immemorial because of its impressive views and unspoilt nature.
A yellow-marked hiking trail leads from the outskirts of Dlažov to the Rozhledna Markéta lookout tower. The route is approximately 2.6 kilometres long and has an elevation gain of 150 metres. Admission to the Rozhledna Markéta is free. From there, the panoramic view extends to Čerchov in the west, Ostrý in the south, Doubrava in the north and the Klatovská kotlina basin in the east.
Culture and history
The Chapel of Svatá Markéta stands on the hill above Dlažov. It was built in 1886 and dedicated to Saint Margaret. In 1887, it was solemnly consecrated in the presence of 25 priests and with the great participation of people from the surrounding area.
The Church of “sv. Antonína Paduánského” in Dlažov is a simple 18th-century building. The original form of an earlier Marian chapel has been preserved in the masonry of the nave of today’s parish church.
In Miletice, the Chapel of “sv. Jana Nepomuckého” was built in 1760 in the Baroque style. The restored frescoes depict, among other things, scenes from the life of Saint Joseph. The chapel was renovated and blessed after the repair work.
