Since early history, this place retains a strong, almost magic influence on all visitors.
Nowadays, the huge Holy Mountain site located amid the town of Pribram serves additional functions.

Our society plans to cooperate with the city authorities and the real estate owners of the surrounding localities to involve them in further development of the Holy Mountain, point out the exceptional landscape values, and explore the possible new utilization of the area while preserving the landscape treasures. At the same time we do welcome any assistance in maintenance and care for overgrown trees and eliminating the weed-like plants.

We also plan to analyze and renew the old pilgrim trails leading to the basilica. Now you can find only fragments of these trails in places marked by scattered crosses in the fields.
