    Also of interest here is the Koch family's crypt, which for understandable reasons cannot be entered.
    Like many border towns that belonged to Germany before the war, including on the Czech side, Saalbach, which even had a pub and its own beer, was razed to the ground because of its proximity to the border and because of the iron curtain after the residents were forcibly resettled.
    It's nice that nowadays you can go where you want without any difficulties.

    Definitely worth seeing and food for thought.

    Immediately behind the Saalbach spring you come across the crypt of the Koch family.
    Grave slabs remember the family members of the Koch family who lived in the hamlet at that time and operated a mill, among other things.
