Information
The book describes in detail the history of Upper Lusatia, which for 400 years was a collateral land of the Kingdom of Bohemia. The detailed description of the places makes it a good incentive to visit this beautiful and varied landscape and its towns, which are endowed with numerous historical monuments.
From the Vogtland to the Lusatian Neisse there were numerous Bohemian Trails, later called Salt Roads or Glass Roads. The present volume 'Der Böhmische Steig' by the Oberlausitzer Verlag describes the routes between Bautzen, Schluckenau and Haida. Near Haida (Novi Bor), this trail met the road from Zittau over the Gabler Pass to Melnik and Prague. In the Middle Ages it was an important trade route between Upper Lusatia and Central Bohemia.
Extensive picture and map material, numerous background information and detailed descriptions of the natural treasures and cultural-historical sights make the trip an unforgettable experience.
