Kaplička svaté Panny Marie - Kaplička svaté Panny Marie

Field chapel with a statue of the Virgin Mary. In the past, field chapels were not established in the village of Kameničky or in its vicinity. The fields here were right on the hills, they were small, huge with collected stones. The meager property of the farmers and the little fertile land it was a permanent fate of the local highlanders. This chapel was built in 2001. The reason was to obtain a free statue of the Virgin Mary, for which a suitable location was created here under Volák's Hill.

The Chapel of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Kameničky is a small sacral building built in 2001, when the village won the title of Village of the Year in the 7th year of the competition within the Rural Renewal Program. The sacral building is brick, consisting of three parts, the so-called pedestal, columnar buildings with niches open to three sides, under the roof of classic roof tiles is a statue of the Virgin Mary, facing in an open niche to the west, side to north and south, the eastern side is covered by masonry. The architecture of the building resembles the classic Passion of Christ, but on three sides the open niches and the statue of the Blessed Virgin Mary is more similar to a niche chapel. The chapel was allegedly handed over to the public on October 1, 2001. I could not find the exact name of the building, the builder and the date of consecration, information about the mentioned small sacral building was not on the village's website, nor within the information about the Roman Catholic parish of Kamenička. The sacral building is located in the southern part of the village by the road II / 343 towards Krejcar (part of the village Chlumětín) and also by the dirt road to the top of Vojtěchova kopce (674 m) on the edge of the Volákův kopec Nature Reserve). The yellow marked tourist route of the Czech Tourists' Club (section Kameničky - Vojtěchův kopec) heads towards the chapel from the center of Kameničky. In terms of landscape, the chapel is an important landscape element, near it there is a building (former Volák's ground, hence the name of the nature reserve) with a memorial plaque commemorating the Czech landscape painter Antonín Slavíček, who lived and worked here between 1903 and 1905. us in Kameničky), later he also stayed at the parish in Kameničky.
