Location

Myslivny lies at a height of 1,000 metres above NN on the highlands of the upper Ore Mountains, just under an hour from Boží Dar and is easily reached on the road to Horní Blatná (Bergstadt Platten). The village, which is 1.5 kilometres northwest of the Gottesgaber Spitzberg mountain on the River Schwarzwasser between Gottesgab and Seifen is surrounded by high forest and was formerly a popular summer retreat and winter sports resort. Until the end of the Second World War, Försterhäuser was directly on bus line from Gottesgab via Abertham to Schlackenwerth.

History

Until the 16th century the place belonged to Barony of Schwarzenberg.

The population made their living by farming, forestry and bobbin lacemaking. Between 1929 and 1932 Greek writer Nikos Kazantzakis and his second wife stayed for several months, vacationing and writing. Following the expulsion of German-speaking people in 1946 many houses were torn down.
