About Kamenné kříže

Stone Crosses is an application for lovers of small stone monuments – stone crosses, cross and reconciliation stones, border, memorial and gravestones and other objects that tell the stories of our ancestors. The database includes monuments mainly from the Czech Republic, but also from other European countries.

The application is a mobile supplement to the Stone Crosses project – a joint work of members and supporters of the Stone Crosses Research Society, which has been dedicated to the registration and protection of these monuments since 1983. It builds on the web database and brings it directly into the field.

What you will find in the application:
• Interactive map with documented monuments
• Detailed information about each object – history, condition and exact location
• Photos of individual monuments
• Search and filter by type, condition and region
• Display your location on the map for easy search in the field
• Summary map of all public points across collections

How you can get involved:
• Upload your own photos of monuments directly from the field
• Join the discussion at individual objects

Who the application is intended for:
It will be appreciated by tourists, cyclists, historians, conservationists and everyone who likes to wander the landscape and discover its hidden treasures. It helps to popularize and protect small stone monuments that are often neglected and endangered.

Discover stone crosses in your area, learn about their history and help preserve them for future generations.
