Tisa

The landscape around Tisá is a sandstone upland of wooded slopes and weathered cliffs in the Elbe Sandstone Mountains, which has shaped both the settlement pattern and local economy. The village lies beside Tiské stěny, an extensive rock city whose narrow passages, towers and overhangs draw walkers and climbers. This protected sandstone area forms part of the Labské pískovce landscape near the Czech-German border. Known historically by the German name Tissa, Tisá reflects the intertwined Czech and German heritage of this borderland. Its small-scale setting makes the formations, rather than urban bustle, the central experience. See how Tisá fits within the Elbe Sandstone Mountains by browsing webcams nearby.
