Bilina: Bílinská

About location

Bílina straddles the Bílina River in the Ústí Region, and its narrow valley has long concentrated settlement and transport routes between the Ore Mountains and the Bohemian Basin. Bílinská Street forms part of the town’s built-up approach, where homes, municipal grounds and wooded slopes meet a major road. Bořeň, a distinctive phonolite rock hill, rises above Bílina as a protected natural landmark. The town is closely associated with Bílinská kyselka, mineral water drawn from local springs and distributed far beyond the region. In the centre, Bílina Castle occupies the site of a medieval stronghold later rebuilt as a château.

Region Ústí nad Labem Region

The Ore Mountains and the Elbe valley define much of Ústecký kraj - coalfields, fertile river slopes and a major transport route have shaped its industry, agriculture and settlement. Around Most, decades of lignite extraction have altered the basin, with extensive land reclamation continuing alongside active mining. To the north, the region reaches the Elbe Sandstone landscape of Bohemian Switzerland National Park, home to Pravčická brána, a natural sandstone arch. The Elbe also links Ústí nad Labem with Litoměřice and Terezín, whose 18th-century fortress later became a Nazi ghetto and prison during the Second World War.

Country Czechia

The terrain of Czechia ranges from fertile lowlands in southern Moravia to mountain ridges along the northern frontier, giving this Central European country a distinctly varied geography. The Vltava runs through Prague before joining the Elbe, while the Krkonoše form part of the border with Poland and include Sněžka, Czechia’s highest mountain. Prague’s historic centre, with Prague Castle and Charles Bridge, reflects the city’s long role as a political and cultural centre. Beyond the capital, Bohemia is known for spa towns and brewing, and Moravia for wine-growing traditions.
