Horní Lipová is a village located in the Olomouc region in the Jesenik region , which is part of the municipality Lipová-bath , which is immediately adjacent to the east. In 2001 , the population was 346.
The first written mention of Horní Lipová dates back to 1689 . The village was founded on the Frývaldov estate of the Bishop of Wrocław by extending the Dolní Lipová towards the Ramzovský saddle and from the mentioned village it became independent especially by the establishment of an independent fojtství (scholtézství), the existence of which in 1696 is a preserved stone emblem. Farmland cultivated land was not initially much here, the inhabitants fed mainly pastures. Significant development of the village occurred after 1777 , when the ministry began to allocate the fortified pasture land to hereditary property. The development of Horní Lipová can be traced to the population: while in 1748there were only 31 gardeners (ie smaller farmers), in 1836 there were 86 farmers, 68 gardeners and 271 housekeepers, 1138 permanent residents. The upward trend then slowed down and halted before the end of the 19th century.
The village had its own school at the beginning of the 19th century, but it fell under Dolní Lipová. The industry was not here. However, important for the village was the construction of the railway from Hanušovice to Jeseník in 1888 , above the village there was a railway station of the same name . The high cant exceeds the track with a series of arches, which gave it the nickname Silesian Semmering .
The population of the village was mostly German. The Czech minority was formed only after the establishment of Czechoslovakia and in 1938 was largely forced to leave. For II. World War I found a smaller prison camp in the valley near the village.
At present, Horní Lipová is primarily a center of winter and summer mountain tourism, also related to the spa in Dolní Lipová. The Museum of Silesian Semmering was recently opened, focusing on the history of the picturesque and technically interesting railway. The station also served as a preview of Bílý potok station in the stories about Alois Nebel.

One day I felt the need to go alone into the woods and shoot the sunrise. I chose a day when it was expected to be clear and foggy. As usual, the universe will do everything to fulfill our favors and so it happened. I entered the forest in the dark, I didn't meet a single person the whole time. During this visit, I experienced a beautiful feeling of connection with nature. I send a sincere greeting from the Czech Republic to all spectators and I wish a lot of strength to these strange times. Stay healthy.
