Province: Karlovarský Kraj
District (Okres) : Karlovy Vary
Official blazon
Origin/meaning
In the 16th century Jindrich Šlik founded this mining settlement in the west part of Krusne Hory, next to the silver and tin ore deposits. In 1332 this settlement became a Townlet and in 1559 it was promoted by King Ferdinand I to the status of a Mining Town.
The coat-of-arms, granted at the same time shows on the right half a pair of miner's tools and below that a hammer crossed with a goldwasher's rake. The tower refers to the town itself, the small shield shows the arms of the Šlik family.
The climbing bear is a canting element for the German name of the town, Bärringen (bear-rings).
