Radobýl


Radobýl is a basalt hill in České středohoří mountains, Czech Republic. It rises above village of Žalhostice on right bank of the Elbe River 3 km west of Litoměřice. Part of the hill with abandoned basalt quarry and rich rock steppe flora is under protection as Radobýl Nature Monument. The hill is a popular hiking destination. From huge metallic cross on the bare summit there is almost 360-degrees panoramic view of central part of České středohoří Mts., Litoměřice, Terezín and Lovosice.
In 1944–1945, the Richard I and II subterranean factories were excavated under Radobýl by forced laborers of Leitmeritz concentration camp.
