CZ: Drevená zvonice z roku 1500, u kostela sv. Jirí v bývalé osade Hradište, na osmiboké podezdívce (opuka). Puvodne byla zvonice zarízena pro dva zvony - zvon z roku 1536 dosloužil již v minulosti a zvon z roku 1504 byl odcizen v roce 1996. V roce 2012 probehla rozsáhlá oprava, drevená cást zvonice byla kompletne rozebrána a znovu setavena. Nyní zvonice ceká na svuj nový zvon, probíhá sbírka na jeho porízení.
Vždy poslední sobotu v mesíci je od 14 hodin komentovaná prohlídka zvonice a kostela.

EN: Wooden belfry from 1500, near the church of st. George in the former settlement of Hradište, on an octagonal retaining wall. Originally the bell tower was equipped for two bells - the bell from 1536 was used in the past and the bell from 1504 was stolen in 1996. In 2012, an extensive repair was carried out, the wooden part of the bell tower was completely dismantled and rebuilt. Now the bell tower is waiting for its new bell, collection is underway for its acquisition.
On the last Saturday of the month there is a guided tour of the bell tower and the church from 2 pm.
