Kutna Hora
The town began in 1142 with the settlement of the first Cistercian Monastary in Bohemia. By 1260 German miners began to mine for silver in the mountain region, which they named Kuttenberg, and which was part of the monastery property. The name of the mountain is said to have arrived from the miners workclothes garb (the Kutten).
