    Monument to the reformer Jan Hus

    350 hundredweight monument: The Hussenstein is located at the place where the Bohemian reformers Jan Hus (6 July 1415) and Hieronymus of Prague (30 May 1416) were burned as heretics during the Council of Constance in the Middle Ages.

    After almost 30 years of controversial discussions, the memorial stone made of blackish limestone, financed with donations, was inaugurated on October 6, 1862 and was intended to stand for "enlightenment, impartiality and mutual respect for different religious opinions" (Joseph Fickler, April 1862).

    Until the construction of the surrounding new buildings after the Second World War, the Hussenstein stood in an almost undeveloped area as a memorial that was visible from afar. Today, on July 6th, the place is the scene of the annual commemoration of the two reformers, Jan Hus and Hieronymus of Prague.
