Devil’s Heads

Devil’s Heads is a rock formation near Mělník, on the outskirts of the village of Želízy. It is a very unusual spectacle of two giant devils carved in the rock, made by the sculptor Václav Levý. The roughly 9-metre high heads have been watching over the small village in the Central Bohemian Region since 1846, when the sculptor completed his work after almost five years.

The Devil’s Heads can be reached by a fairly steep trail, but the walk shouldn’t take you more than 10 – 15 minutes. A blue trail here is also worth mentioning, which is also known as the V. Levy Circuit.
