"In 1945, when the SS troops were fleeing from here, Mr. Kubelka and Mr. Nohejl, Mr. Kubelka was the father of my classmate Helena, so they, as partisans, simply took over the protection of Choltice. They took their rifles on their shoulders, climbed the hill to Antoníček, and the boys rode nicely, these SS troop support, so the truck was full of them, they pulled the trigger and shot into them and shot them all dead. They have a monument there."

"Mr. Thun, the Count, was such a philanthropist. He really liked meeting people here in a pub especially with the guys who worked on the property. He was basically weird. It was said that he had a golden ball, which just started spinning automatically as there was a kind of a magnet. Here he simply, as he had a field, all around here was a fairly large estate of Thun's. And he didn't know what kind of fertilizer to use in the field, so he had the magnet and the ball stopped on the ground. Basically, he ordered the pulp and he had it brought in there and that's it, the bullet just showed it to him."
