The only historical monument in the municipality is the ruin of the Valdek Castle, located near Neřežín. It was built by the Buzic family probably around 1260 and once owned by King Wenceslaus IV. In 1623, it was described as desolated. Today the castle is in a state of disrepair and inaccessible. The most notable preserved element of the castle is the bergfried.[5][6]
