It is located at the confluence of the rivers Křemelná and Vydra. It is named after a timber trader who had a real sawmill built here in the second half of the 19th century for processing wood from the Šumava forests. From here, the wood floated all the way to Prague along the Otava River, which originates at the confluence of the Křemelná and Vydra rivers. Before the First World War, a small power plant was built here. By the way, its Francis turbine is still functional.
