Radostowa

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A mountain, 451 metres high, in the Łysogóry range of the Polish Holy Cross Mountains.

At the feet of Radostowa lies Ciekoty, a home village of a famous Polish writer Stefan Żeromski.

The name of the mountain is similar to that of a Czech mountain Radhošť. Both names were probably derived from the Slavic god of hospitality, Radhost.

The mountain's name was used as a title for a regional literature magazine, Radostowa.
