On the Accounts of the Chapel of Virgin Mary in Valašské Klobouky between 1842 and 1878
- Městské muzeum Valašské Klobouky
The Chapel of Virgin Mary, which can be found near the road from Valašské Klobouky to Brumov, was built between 1842 and 1843. Surviving receipts and accounts from between 1842 and 1878 present a valuable view on the building of the chapel, its running costs and economics. The accounts enabled the researchers to see not only what the building costs of the chapel were and where the finance came from but also how the chapel functioned in the span of nearly four decades. Economically, the chapel was basically a self-contained unit. The income came mostly from alms, which covered not only the necessary regular outgoings but also the costs of inventory additions as well as its repairs, including, for instance, a new roof.
