Třebušín is best known in the Ústí Region for Kalich Castle, an early-15th-century Hussite stronghold associated with Jan Žižka. The village lies in the České středohoří, a range of former volcanic hills in northern Bohemia. Kalich was founded in 1421 by Žižka, a leading commander of the Hussite movement, and its ruins occupy a wooded hill above the settlement. The castle’s name refers to the chalice, a central Hussite symbol. This rural community connects directly to a defining chapter of Czech religious and political history, while the rolling upland terrain contrasts with the Elbe lowlands around Litoměřice.
