Pantheon at Malá Skála
Pantheon (hrad Vranov)
A Romantic-era memorial hall on the ruins of Vranov Rock Castle, with stone steps and rock clefts overlooking the Jizera Valley.
In the early 19th century, merchant Franz Zbaloum built a memorial hall called the Pantheon on the ruins of medieval Vranov Rock Castle. He carved inscriptions into the rock dedicated to the Austrian imperial family and historical figures, and also built a small chapel. Steps and iron ladders cut into the cliff lead to the summit viewing platform, which looks down on the Jizera River winding through the village of Malá Skála. There is a small entrance fee, and it is open in summer. It is about a 20-minute walk from Malá Skála railway station and can be combined with a visit to Suchý Rock.
Opening hours
Apr–Oct approx. 09:00–17:00
