Landscape and Natural Area

The Kulivá hora–Švarcava locality stretches along the Švarcava Valley from Solopysky to Roblín, in the direction of Tův mlýn. In the section extending to Roblín, fragments of alluvial forest line the Švarcava stream. The locality is a nature reserve within the Český kras Protected Landscape Area and is designated as a geotourism excursion site.

The locality can be reached from the road via a walkable trail; the access route continues for more than 250 metres. As trail conditions may change, check access before your visit. This gives you a specific reference point for planning a visit to the natural area.

Local History Around the Village Square

The first historical mention of Roblín dates to 1365. In the 14th century, Dolní Roblín was a fief of Karlštejn Castle, while Horní Roblín belonged to Třebotov. The medieval affiliations concern different names and relationships: Karlštejn Castle is associated with Dolní Roblín, and Třebotov with Horní Roblín. A chapel with a bell tower stands in the village square; it is a listed cultural monument dating from 1806.

The dates mark different historical reference points: 1365 is the year of the first mention, while the chapel is associated with 1806. Together with the distinct 14th-century affiliations, they provide a timeline from the first mention through medieval relationships to a cultural monument in the village square.
