    The village's origins are linked to glassmaking, dating back to the end of the 16th century.
    Plös is one of the largest and most populous vanished villages in the Bohemian Forest. In 1930, the village had 105 houses, home to 726 residents.
    Translated by
    This place is beautiful in every season and has a very special atmosphere.
    There is an old cemetery, remains of the wall of the cemetery church and some houses, beautiful nature and an inn to stop off at.
