Hornická kulturní krajina Abertamy – Horní Blatná – Boží Dar, Mining landscape monument zone in Karlovy Vary District, Czechia.

The protected landscape encompasses 5,220 hectares across Abertamy, Horní Blatná, and Boží Dar municipalities, featuring extensive mining sites and historical remnants.

The region developed in the 16th century when new mining towns emerged following discoveries of silver, tin, and iron ore deposits in the Ore Mountains.

The towns of Abertamy and Horní Blatná maintain mining traditions through regular festivals celebrating local crafts, music, and industrial heritage.

The area connects to major regional roads and offers year-round activities including hiking trails through former mining sites and winter sports facilities.

The Blatenský water canal, constructed between 1540 and 1544, extends over 13 kilometers and continues to supply water to the mining region.
