Zvedava Ulicka III

Another photo of Zvedava Ulicka in Jilemnice.

 

Zvědavá ulička in Jilemnice is an interesting collection of folk architecture typical for Krkonoše region. Most of the houses were built after the fire in 1788. Each of the houses is situated one window axle forward into the street in such a way that the inhabitants can easily see towards the square - that is where the name Zvědavá (i.e. "curious" in English) comes from.
