Summary/Abstract: During the historical study of glassmaking in the Jeseníky mountains it is necessary to work with the written archival sources (that rarely occur in Middle Ages and early modern times), old regional history literature and also with cartographic sources. There are some toponyms relating to the history of glassmaking excerpted from these written and cartographic sources. They would probably be able to locate some habitats of defunct glassworks.
