Baroque local history and mining history

The Baroque Světec Castle was built in the late 17th century on the site of an older Romanesque monastery. The church dedicated to Saint James is part of the area's older history; its foundation dates back to the beginning of the 13th century. A stone column with a Pietà depiction, erected in 1710, adds to the area's historical character.

Historically, Světec was initially shaped by farming. Later, lignite mining changed the development of the locality. The former Světecké pole open-cast mine also influenced the area's more recent history and led to structural changes. This provides a concrete picture of Světec without inferring any current mining activities or present-day sightseeing opportunities from it.
