Yes, this interesting village, known as Eibenthal, is also famous for theft free community.
It is famous about this village that there was never an incident of theft of anything.
There’s no police station in this village, and apparently, it doesn’t even matter.
The population of the village is extremely peaceful and every one comes with respect to each other.
Apart from this, there is no crime rate.
There are no names and signs of theft here, village residents keep their money in the bag without any fear and hang the bag in various places. These bags are locked for the pursuit of bread. Those who provide bread, hanging from home walls or different pots, take money from these bags and put them in the desired amount of bread, and also the remaining money.
Interestingly, during the last 20 years, no one claimed his bread money to be stolen. And villagers, this unique procedure has been adopted since 1996.
The village’s only local store was also closed after the revolution in 1989.After which the villagers used to wait for a bread truck that came from a village located 20 kilometres away every two days.

After which an unusual idea came to mind the residents of the village and they kept the bag on the road by keeping some money for a bread provider and a written note bag.
On this note, the required quantity of bread was mentioned.
Soon the villagers realised that the money or bread in the bag is never stolen, while both of them exist on the road without any security measures. But nobody ever tried to steal them nor had any such incident happened.
A 75-year-old resident of the village said that “a bread carrier comes after every two days and I buy double bread from them. I’ll leave a note about the required amount of bread in his bag and bread salesman put bread and the rest of the money is my bag. I have never heard of any problem and never heard that someone said my bread or money disappeared”.
Another resident said, “I leave my bag and go to work in the fields and when I return, there are bread and remaining money in the bag”.
In this village, this matter is not just this, but residents also respect each other.
Vaclav Masek, a village’s local priest says, “No stolen incident happen in this village, there are several precious items in my garage, while the garage is open all the time, but nothing has been stolen. I’m here 13 years but never heard any incident of theft “.
We all know each other and we also know that if anything is required then the owner of the thing should ask, but should not steal. We’re happy for this moment and don’t take a bad attitude.
