Kunvald village (450m) in ®amberk Downy, spread along Horský potok (Mountain creek) north to ®amberk, first reported in 1363. In 1457 Brother Gregor established there the first residence of the Brotherly Unity (a sort of reformist church). House No.238 used to be a Czech Brothers Chapel, nearby smithery already perished. The lime tree by Divi¹ farmstead is one of the three trees embedded there in 1547 when the brotherly community had to expatriate for the first time. It is now 47 m high with a 7 m perimeter. A St. George church in the centre of a churchyard originates from 1606-1616.
