Žebrácký raw
Žebrácký roh (German Betteleck , also Battleck , Battlecke or Battelecke ) is a desert on the ridge of the Eastern Ore Mountains in the Czech Republic . The group of houses was 770 meters above sea level on the southern edge of the fishing forest at a crossroads directly on the German border. Their corridors are in the area of the city of Osek on the boundary between Mackov and Pastviny .
geography
Žebrácký roh was on a pass at the intersection of the roads from Mackov to Rechenberg and from Nové Město to Český Jiřetín . To the north rises the Steinkuppe (806 m), in the northeast the Hirschhübel (750 m), east the Nad Křížkem ( Steinhübel , 857 m), in the south the Kamenná ( Steinberg , 838 m) and the Puklá skála ( Sprengberg , 840 m) and to the west of the Jilmový vrch ( Ilmberg , 826 m). The Hirschbach rises to the east and the Bystrý potok ( Rauschenbach ) to the south .

history
The Ossegger Steig , which leads from Ossegg over the Erzgebirgskamm to Rechenberg , was probably laid out in the 11th century by the Lords of Hrabischitz as the starting point for their settlement of the Erzgebirgskamm and the establishment of the Sayda , Purschenstein and Rechenberg dominions in the Margraviate of Meißen . In 1341, Borso von Riesenburg had a new trade route laid out from Ossegg via Riesenberg , Langewiese , Strasbourg and Grünwald , which reached the Ossegger Steig on the pass and continued on this to Rechenberg and Frauenstein . This trade route to Saxony lost its importance at the transition from the 15th to the 16th century.
In 1583 the city of Freiberg had a raft counting office set up for timber rafting on the Freiberg Mulde in Bohemia . The name of the single-layer is derived from this building, popularly known as the wage house; the raftsmen and woodcutters often had to beg for payment of their meager wages. At the same time, accommodation was also created for foreign woodcutters and day laborers, but most of the employees came from the surrounding villages of Grünwald, Ullersdorf , Motzdorf and Willersdorf . After the construction of the Neugraben rafts between 1624 and 1629 , the wages house also served as the raft house for the Neugraben rafts. There was also a Bohemian customs house at Betteleck, and the Saxon customs were taken in the fisherman's house in Oberholzhau. In 1923 the restaurant Zur Battlecke was established . There was also a shop for border tourists in the settlement.
The border crossing was closed after the Second World War. In 1953 the group of houses was demolished in the course of the establishment of the border zone and became part of the restricted area. In 1961 the Žebrácký roh was again accessible to hikers after the border barrier to the GDR was lifted from the Czechoslovak side. The tourist border crossing was opened in 2007. In 2008, a wooden protective pavilion was built at Žebrácký roh, and bilingual information boards were set up by the Deutschgeorgenthal municipality .
