history
In the 9th century gold soaps were operated on the Rachelbach and its tributaries that flow there.
After Joseph II von Schwarzenberg had acquired the rule of Stubenbach in 1799 , he had the Chinitz-Tettau flood canal built in order to be able to exploit the wood wealth of the Bohemian Forest by means of rafting inland. At the beginning of the 19th century, the Josefstadt and Pürstling lumberjack settlements were built . At the southeastern foot of the Bärensteindl, the Rachelbach in Mühlbuchetfilz was dammed by means of a 45 m long earth dam reinforced with piles. The resulting 4 m deep Rachelschwelle / Roklanská nádrž served as a water reservoir for the use of the Rachelbach for the wooden rafts to the alluvial canal. In 1804, the Rachelhütte was built next to the Rachel's threshold and was inhabited by the pond guard. The Rachelhütte remained subservient to Stubenbach until the middle of the 19th century.
After the abolition of patrimonial , the Rachelhütte formed a single layer of the community of Stubenbach and Stadlern II from 1850. Share in the judicial district of Hartmanitz. From 1868 the Rachelhütte belonged to the Schüttenhofen district . In 1869, a new forest district for the Rachel Forest , which was separated from the Pürstling forest district, was set up in Rachelhütte . Josef Trampus, whose father Augustin Trampus held the same office in Pürstling from 1832, was the first district forester to move into the new forester's house with his family, which also allowed hikers to rest and camp for the night. At that time, Rachelhütte consisted of a house with twelve people living in it. The wind breaks of 1868 and 1870 destroyed a large part of the old trees in the Bohemian Forest. In 1910 the only residential building in Rachelhütte was inhabited by eleven people. In 1924 Philippshütten , Preisleiten , Pürstling, Mader and Rachelhütte broke away from Stubenbach and formed their own community, which was initially called Preisleiten. In 1934 the community name was changed to Filipova Huť / Philippshütten . Increasing tourism prompted the Czech Tourist Club (KČT ) to build the Roklanská chata ( Rachelhaus ) hostel next to the forester's house in 1936 . The building, built according to the plans of the Schüttenhofen master builder Karel Houra, quickly became the main Bohemian starting point for ascents to Rachel. After the Munich Agreement , Rachelhütte was added to the German Reich. From 1939 to 1945 the single shift belonged to the Bavarian district of Bergreichenstein . After the Second World War , the German-speaking residents were expelled . With the erection of the Iron Curtain , the Roklanská hájenka belonged to the restricted area since the beginning of the 1950s. The access road from the old Pürstlinger Steig was only passable from the Trampus Cross to Studený potok. After a soldier from Pohraniční stráž drowned in Roklanská nádrž , the dam of the pond was blown up.
After the fall of the Iron Process, the entire Maderer Filze area was incorporated into the core zone of the Šumava National Park . The neglected hut Roklanská chata has been preserved , the forester's house no longer exists.
