The glass production in Steinschoenau

The history of Bohemian glass-making has begun very early. 

Glassworks in the Bohemia Forest, in the Giant Mountains areas and glassworks around the city of Turnov and elsewhere in Northern Bohemia produced glass as early as the 14th century. 

Steinschoenau gradually became an important centre of glass-making. Glass-making workshops flourished here and the city became “the capital of the chandelier-makers world”. 

Apart from chandeliers also drinking vessels, goblets, boxes and other items were manufactured in the Steinschoenau area (including Parchen and Schelten).
