The town has a long history of gold mining. First written accounts are from the 13th century but scientists estimate that gold mining there began already at he end of the 10th century. In 1990', mining operations were stopped as they were no longer profitable. However, as of 2015, there is a possibility that the mines will be opened again because the price of gold (in USD) has risen five times since then. The estimate amount of gold in the mines is from 3 to 9 tons.〔http://www.novinky.cz/ekonomika/366872-cesko-zvazuje-ze-obnovi-tezbu-zlata.html〕 The Czech name Zlaté hory can be translated as Golden Mountains. == Places of interest == * the main square with listed buildings * the church of the Ascension of Virgin Mary * the chapel of Saint Roch * Edelštejn, Leuchtenštejn a Kobrštejn - ruins of the castles * the church of Virgin Mary, the Helpful * Biskupská kupa with a view-tower of Franz Josef 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Zlaté Hory」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
