About the center
This seasonal visitor centre is located inside the renovated historic gamekeeper’s lodge of the Schwarzenbergs in Březník. It is a well-known setting for stories by Karel Faustin Klostermann.
The gamekeeper’s lodge and the former residence of Mr Kořán, a district forest officer and the key protagonist of the novel Ze světa lesních samot [From the World of Forest Solitude] by Karel Klostermann, was revitalised in 2003 in its new role as a site for attracting and informing visitors.
Since 2007, it has operated as a visitor centre of the Šumava National Park Administration.
What the centre offers
- Dedicated to the history of the area surrounding Březník, as well as to writer Karel Klostermann, the exhibit was set up by Karel Klostermann - spisovatel Šumavy, an NGO based in Srní, with the assistance of Museum of Šumava in Sušice, Šumava National Park and Protected Land Area Administration, friends from the Bavarian Karl Klostermann - Dichter des Böhmerwaldes e.V., and some of the towns and villages of the region.
