Etymologyedit
The name Lišov was probably derived from the personal name Lichý, meaning "Lichý's (settlement)". The personal name itself means "odd" in Czech, but in old Czech it also meant "dishonest, evil".[2]
The most valuable building is the Schwarzenberg Hospital, built by Jan Adolf of Schwarzenberg in 1675–1676.[3] Today it houses a museum, library and gallery.[6]
The Church of Saint Wenceslaus was built in the second half of the 19th century. It replaced the old church. The Church of Saints Nicholas and Leonard in Dolní Slověnice is originally a Gothic church from the late 13th century. It was later baroque rebuilt.[3]
A technical monument is Locus perennis or "eternal place", an obelisk with built-in levelling markings. It was established here as one of the seven fixed points of accurate levelling of the Austro-Hungarian surveying system for European measurements. According to this system, the altitude of the obelisk is exactly 565.1483 metres (1,854.161 ft) above sea level in Trieste.[3]
