The Chapel of St. Notburga in Podbořanský Rohozec is a filial church of the Nepomyšl parish; regular services are not held in the chapel. Its façade is decorated with statues of Saint Notburga, Saint Procopius and Saint Isidore.

About 1 km southwest of Podbořanský Rohozec, near the Střelnice forester's lodge, lies the circular fortification of Budiš, also known as Rondel.
