The ParishChurch of Virgin Mary Painful
Between 1696 and 1697 a chapel of Virgin Mary was built in Bělá nad Radbuzou. But soon it was not adequate and so it was extended – it is reminded by the inscription in the entry portal from the year 1721. The chapel was burnt in 1826. The owner of Bělá manor rebuilt and enlarged it. In a box in the tower, there was deposited a document – “In the spring 1827, highborn imperial independent lord Wenceslas Koc from Dobrsch, the chamberlain, the knight of imperial Austrian order of St. Leopold, the upper sergeant of c. k. army, the owner of the manor Újezd Svatého Kříže, Bělá nad Radbuzou and Železná, the gracious sponsor of this church, established this tower and cover it by a metal place. God bless him and his descendants.” The last reparations were made in 1993.
