The most important monument is the ruin of the Kožlí Castle, located in the northeastern tip of the municipal territory. First mentioned in 1318, it was built in the first quarter of the 14th century. The castle was probably destroyed during the time of the [[Bohemian–Hungarian War (1468–1478)]]. Several remains of perimeter walls and palace buildings have survived to this day. In the area of the castle ruin is also a small chapel from the 19th century.<ref>{{cite web |title=Hrad Kožlí, zřícenina a archeologické stopy|url=https://pamatkovykatalog.cz/hrad-kozli-zricenina-a-archeologicke-stopy-2146926|publisher=National Heritage Institute|language=cs|access-date=2024-08-26}}</ref>
