Church of the Visitation of Mary in CZ-Nove Domky
In 1699 the wooded area around today's village fell to the rule of Groß Maierhöfen. In 1703 the village already had 423 inhabitants.
In 1786 an exposition was set up here. At that time the chapel was still used for church services. A cemetery was also laid out in 1787. Construction of a larger church began in 1791. Due to the French wars, however, construction was stopped. In 1808 a wooden, simpler church was built on the existing foundation walls. The new church was built between 1834 and 1838 under Count Franz Anton von Kolowrat-Liebsteinsky. In 1854 she was raised to a parish.After the abolition of patrimonial Neuhäusl formed from 1849 with the district Reichenthal a municipality in the judicial district of Tachau. From 1868 the village belonged to the Tachau district. After the Munich Agreement, the municipality was added to the German Reich in 1938 and belonged to the Tachau district until 1945. 194

It would be a beautiful church but unfortunately it is in ruins with a cemetery next to it
