History of Zhůří
Zhůří (Haidl) is an extinct settlement where 104 inhabitants lived in 17 houses before the Second World War. There was also a chapel dedicated to St. Wenceslas, which was later demolished. In the 1950s, the last inhabitants were evicted and their abandoned houses were demolished. Barracks and radar stations were built on the site. During totalitarianism, entry to these places was strictly forbidden. On Christmas Eve in 1937, an Air France Wibault 282-T passenger plane crashed into the slope of Hutská hora. There were two crew members and one passenger on board, all of whom were killed. A memorial to the victims of the crash has been erected at the crash site.
