该矿区位于德国东南部（萨克森）和捷克西北部。厄尔士/克鲁什内山脉又称“金属山脉”，蕴藏着各种金属，当地的采矿活动可追溯至中世纪。在1460-1560年间，这里是欧洲最大的银矿开采地，触发了当时的技术革新。锡是在该矿区历史上第二种被提取和加工的金属。19世纪末，厄尔士/克鲁什内山脉矿区成为世界上重要的铀出产地。800年（12-20世纪）几乎从未间断的采矿活动在这里留下了矿山、先进的水利管理系统、创新的矿物加工和冶炼场地、矿区市镇等遗产，深刻影响了金属山脉的文化景观。

Erzgebirge/Krušnohoří (Ore Mountains) spans a region in south-eastern Germany (Saxony) and north-western Czechia, which contains a wealth of several metals exploited through mining from the Middle Ages onwards. The region became the most important source of silver ore in Europe from 1460 to 1560. Mining was the trigger for technological and scientific innovations transferred worldwide. Tin was historically the second metal to be extracted and processed at the site. At the end of the 19th century, the region became a major global producer of uranium. The cultural landscape of the Ore Mountains has been deeply shaped by 800 years of almost continuous mining, from the 12th to the 20th century, with mining, pioneering water management systems, innovative mineral processing and smelting sites, and mining cities.
