Zvonice u kostela Nanebevzetí Panny Marie
Hranolová zvonice se zdeným prízemím a šindelovou strechou. Nejstarší zmínka o zvonici je z roku 1516, v roce 1921 budova vyhorela a ješte téhož roku byla obnovena. Zvonice stojí na míste, kde bylo v roce 1496 popraveno 10 vudcu povstání kutnohorských havíru. Jelikož dle tehdejších zákonu nebylo možné jich na míste popravit více, byly poslední tri havíri odvezeni k poprave na Krivoklát. Jeden z nich se ale zachránil útekem, informoval panovníka Vladislava Jagellonského, nacež byl osvobozen mimorádným soudem a praví viníci potrestáni.

Poblíž kostela také stál dub, jehož vetve podle legendy potrísnila krev popravených havíru a strom poté zacal rodit zvláštní žaludy, znetvorené vodorovnými rýžkami (považované v lidové fantazii za tela havíru s useknutou hlavou). Dub shorel v roce 1777 po zásahu bleskem.
