Antýgl

Czech Republic / Plzensky / Srni /
 campsite / caravan site, historic site, 1700s construction (1700 - 1709)

The farmstead Antýgl, originally a wooden homestead, lies on the bank of the Vydra river near the road between villages Srní and Modrava in the National Park Šumava (Bohemian Forest).

It was settled by the so-called Králováks at the turn of the 16th century. It was named after former glassworks (German "ein Tiegel" means "one glasswork"). The wooden farmstead is a typical example of the architecture of the Šumava mountains.

Antýgl is a well-known starting point of trips to the Povydří (Vydra Valley).
