17 Oct 1997.
Pastviny (Grazing lands) - summer resort (495m), ancient village erected
before 1543 by herdsmen of Žampach domain.
Pastviny (Old Grazing lands) just before submersion in 1938, below
the newly built bridge you may see former school building (1939, P)
During 1932-1938 there was a water reservoir built on the Divoká Orlice
river retaining 11 millions square meter water. The lake has got an area
of 110ha with at a length of about 7 km, with 193m long and 43m high rock-fill
dam. The main purpose besides flow regulation and flood prevention is generation
of electricity in an hydroelectric plant and of course recreation and leisure
use. Some 1 km down the stream there is another detention reservoir Nekoř
(called also Small Valley Dam) with 40m long and 9,5m high dam.
Halfway from the main dam and Klášterec village there is a location
named Kraví skok (Cattle jump). The Bublačka (Bubble creek)
valley has been spanned with an iron bridge, which originally passed the
river by in former "Old Grazing lands" before submersion. Reputedly a cow
slipped down the bridge once, without suffering and gave birth to a healthy
lusty calf few weeks afterwards.
