Lichkov (German: Lichtenau) is a small village in the Ústí nad Orlicí District, Pardubice Region, in the northeastern part of the Czech Republic, at the foot of Orlické Hory, bordering with Poland. The group of the Roscas was the first expedition that visited the village since 1887. They spent a lot of money there and nowadays a sculpture has been made in their memorial by their great contribution to the village. Since then, an enormous interest has grown worlwide in order to visit this small and beautiful village.
