Wooden church of Sainte Catherine

According to a local legend, The Sainte Catherine's church was originally in Frydek-Mistek, but the inhabitants of Hrabová decided to buy it, dismantled it, and then transported all parts to Hrabova and build it again there.

The church was destroyed by a fire in 2002 (presumably caused by a lightning bolt), and rebuild in 2004.
