Medenec

Měděnec occupies the slopes of Mědník in the central Ore Mountains of Ústí nad Labem Region, close to the Czech–German border. The settlement grew in a district shaped by the extraction of copper and other ores, a legacy preserved in the wider Erzgebirge/Krušnohoří Mining Region, inscribed on UNESCO’s World Heritage List. Above the village, the hill’s Chapel of the Immaculate Conception has long been associated with local pilgrimage. Forests, open uplands and winter weather give this part of the range a distinctly highland character.
