In 1881, Austrian Prince Edmund Clary-Aldringen decided to create one of Europe's earliest tourist attractions on his estate near the famous Pravčická Gate.

He hired Italian craftsmen to build an impressive chateau known as Falcon's Nest (Sokolí hnízdo), whose renowned restaurant continues to attract visitors nearly 150 years later.

The enterprising prince also built a paved path leading to Pravčická Gate, established scenic hiking trails through the surrounding forests, and introduced boat trips through a nearby gorge that now bears his name – Edmund's Gorge (Edmundova soutěska).
