Nove Hute: Pohled na Boubín z Nových Hutí
The landscape around Nové Hutě is a mosaic of forested Šumava slopes and open meadows, which has shaped both the built environment and local life. The settlement lies in the Bohemian Forest, the broad upland range forming a borderland between Czechia, Germany and Austria. Scattered houses and small farm plots follow available clearings rather than a dense town plan, giving the area a distinctly rural scale. Its Czech name means “New Glassworks”, recalling the glassmaking that helped establish communities across Šumava. Nové Hutě is part of the Prachatice District in South Bohemia, where woodland, pasture and modest settlement remain closely interwoven.
