Olší is located on the edge of the Svratecká hornatina Nature Park. The village is home to the Church of St. George, a state-protected cultural monument. Its core dates back to the 15th century, and its prismatic tower has retained its fortress-like character.

Culture and local history

The settlement of Rakové is home to a marble cross dating from 1870. An annual pilgrimage takes place at the Chapel of St. Anne in Rakové.

Road II/385 runs through the Litava district of the municipality of Olší. The former Baroque inn, which is a protected cultural monument, stands there. It has preserved its original layout from 1734 and acquired its present appearance in 1929.

In Klokočí, the chapel replaced a wooden bell tower in 1894. A monument to four fallen soldiers of the First World War stands in a park next to the chapel. The memorial plaques for T. G. Masaryk and E. Beneš beside the chapel in Klokočí were hidden during the war and unveiled again in 1968.
