Wenzel Kumer, famous North Bohemian bandit leader, was born in Víska on 7 September 1767 and later imprisoned in Špilberk (he is also referred to as Václav Kumr in Czech). In 1842, he returned to Víska where he died a pauper on 6 March 1843, behind the stove in farmer Šafránek's house (No. 3). According to many literature researchers, he was the inspiration for Karel Hynek Mácha in his creation of the "Terrible Forest Master" in Máj.
