The train station, which was extensively modernized in 2008, is located in the north of the city. This is where the main line from Cheb to Karlovy Vary is connected. There is constant criticism of how many homeless people live here and how many beggars hang around. The area around the train station is considered a dangerous place in Sokolov.

The road junction east of the station is decorated with a large wooden sculpture of the knight Sebastián, who, according to legend, founded Sokolov at the confluence of the Ohře and Zwota rivers. Sebastián was a skilled falconer, and the local nobles valued his services very much. This is how the place got its name, Falkenau.

In 1253, a Crusader plaque with a red star (Knightly Order of the Cross Lords with the Red Star; https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kreuzherren_mit_dem_Roten_Stern) mentions the owner of the Church of St. Nicholas. The founding of the church is probably related to the start of mining activity in the area and, more recently, to signs of contemporary settlement related to Testo's activities. Its gradual decline in the High Middle Ages can be attributed primarily to the loss of importance of the trade route and the nearby customs house, particularly as a result of the turbulent period of the Thirty Years' War. At the end of the 19th century there was practically no trace of the church in the dense forest. In the 1980s, researchers repeatedly drew attention to the possibility of identifying a historically documented church on the site of a prominent hill on the road from today's Hrušková to Třídomí. Between 2002 and 2006, the Karlovy Vary Museum carried out archaeological investigations here, which clearly confirmed the older assumptions. Ultimately, the church was completely gutted after a geodetic survey and subsequently reconstructed in the form of a controlled ruin with small stone additions, including the use of some found elements of the window and portal cladding.

The desert church of St. Nicholas under the Krudum (Czech: Kostel sv. Mikuláše pod Krudumem) is a legendary former religious building in the Imperial Forest, Czech Republic.

Nicholas as the patron saint of merchants and was located on an old trade route from Eger via Königsberg, Schlaggenwald, Petschau and Luditz to Prague, suggests that it was built as a wayside church.
