Wooden Upper Lusatian style houses are a typical sight in the Czech-Polish-German borderlands. Traditional folk houses are scattered like beads in the mountain valleys and meadows. Beautiful half-timbered houses can be found in the picturesque villages of Mařenice, Heřmanice, Horní and Dolní Světlá, Krompach, and many other places. Velenice, Sloup v Čechách, or Kryštofovo Údolí enjoy the status of village conservation areas with beautifully preserved cottages. More impressive buildings can be found in towns such as Kamenický Šenov, Nový Bor, or Jablonné v Podještědí. Once a year, the Upper Lusatian houses are opened to the public, who can get acquainted with these unique folk architecture masterpieces through the Open Day. The owners of such houses can join HERE
