Some interesting Sachiana from the municipal website:
The town of Oudoleň extends in the Horní Sázava Upland, 9 km southeast
of Chotĕboř at 550 m above sea level. The Oudoleňský creek, also called
Oudoleňka, flows through the town. Around 1900, this little town had 787
inhabitants whose number has been reduced to less than half to this date,
specifically to 350. The first written mention of the town goes back to
1397. One of the town’s interesting sights is farmstead No. 20.
It is a complex of residential and farm buildings from the end of the
18th century. The residential building prides itself on a well-preserved
Classicist front with simple stucco ornaments. A monument devoted to the
victims of WWI is attached to a 19th century chapel. Worth mentioning is
also the building of a former mill and a contemporary structure of a community
culture house.
