Description
Čeština: Motorový vuz 844 v zastávce Mikulov v Krušných horách.
English: (per Google Translate)

Motor vehicle stop at 844 Mikulov in the Ore Mountains


re: The Ore Mountains or Ore Mountains Range[1] in Central Europe have formed a natural border between Saxony and Bohemia for around 800 years, from the 12th to the 20th centuries. Today, the border between Germany and the Czech Republic runs just north of the main crest of the mountain range. The highest peaks are the Klínovec (German: Keilberg), which rises to 1,244 metres (4,081 ft) above sea level and the Fichtelberg (1,215 metres (3,986 ft)).

The area played an important role in contributing Bronze Age ore, and as the setting of the earliest stages of the early modern transformation of mining and metallurgy from a craft to a large-scale industry, a process that preceded and enabled the later Industrial Revolution.

   ■ Both literally translate to "ore mountains"[2])
