In the family-owned woodworking businesses, Count Jindřich Kolowrat-Krakowský commissioned this chapel in 1939. It is dedicated to the Virgin Mary and Saint Sophia and was built as a memorial to the Count's first wife, Sofia Nikolaevna Trubetskaya, who died in 1938. The mother of four of the Count's five children lived to be only 38 years old.

Železná (German: Eisendorf) lies directly on the Czech-German border and, together with Tillyschanz on the German side, forms a border crossing. State road 2155 comes from Eslarn through Tillyschanz, crosses the border into the Czech Republic, and continues there as road no. 197, which leads through Železná to Bělá nad Radbuzou (German: Weißensulz).

A cozy inn with a lovely beer garden and playground. It's very busy in the summer, as a major Czech cycling route runs nearby. The staff is friendly and the food is delicious.
