Program: First day we visited famous heritage stones deposits: Ruprechtice (typical granit deposit “Liberecká žula”) and Spa Bělohrad – quarry Javorka (nicely coloured sandstones). Then we moved to Hořice town, famous by its sculpture school, which we also visited. Here we joined the lecture about “How the statue is made” and also seen different processes and approaches of making statues. Besides the school we also visited a famous park and graveyard with many sculpture works (many times made by famous sculptors) from local school.
