Osek

Osek has served as a Cistercian monastic centre in the foothills of the Ore Mountains since the late 12th century. Founded in 1196, Osek Monastery remains the town’s defining monument, with a Baroque complex built around the Church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary. The settlement lies beneath the forested slopes of the Krušné hory, a mountain range long associated with Central European mining and borderland life. Its compact centre gives Osek a quieter character than the larger cities of the Ústí nad Labem Region.
