Sights
The most important monument is the Church of Saint Wenceslaus in Kocléřov. It was built in the Baroque style in 1720 and rebuilt in 1807. It was built on the site of an old Gothic church from the 14th century.

A tourist destination is the pilgrimage site U Studánky. It is located in the woods between Kocléřov and Hájemství. The site is linked to the legend of a miraculous spring that restored sight to a blind woman in 1848. First, chapels were built here and later they were replaced by the current Church of the Visitation of the Virgin Mary, built in the Neo-Romanesque style.
