Krupka

Krupka lies along the Krupský potok on the southern slopes of the Ore Mountains, where the range descends toward the Teplice Basin. The town developed around deposits of tin, mined here from the Middle Ages and central to the long shared mining history of Czechia and Saxony. Krupka’s mining landscape forms part of the UNESCO-listed Erzgebirge/Krušnohoří Mining Region, with historic workings and routes spread across the wooded hillsides. Above the older town stand the ruins of Krupka Castle, recalling its role on routes through the mountains.
