Psí kostel

Psí kostel (Dog church), also called Husovy kostely (Hus’s churches), is one of the largest sandstone caves in Ralsko, and it certainly resembles a natural cathedral. The low stone rooms are supported by rock pillars, the biggest of which resemble an hourglass. The caves are connected by corridors that have a total of eighty meters! You can comfortably enter Psí kostel from above through seven openings, you just have to bend your neck a little. From below under the rock formation, the windows of this cathedral look completely impregnable!

This was probably the reason why, according to literary sources, the leader of the Ippert bandits and deserter of the imperial army, Macek, hid here (in vain, as he was captured), and it was here that he was captured. Over one hundred years ago, Psí kostel was a popular excursion destination. The fire-marked walls and the black cobwebs testify to the fact that hikers still like to sleep here today.
