History & geography

History

The first written mention of Černošín is from 1155, but this document has not been preserved. The next mention of Černošín is from 1290. From the 14th to the 17th century, it was owned by the Schwamberg family. In 1541, Černošín was promoted to a town. After the town obtained various rights and privileges in 1551, it became an important trade and craft centre. The development was stopped by the Thirty Years' War, during which the town was heavily damaged and depopulated. In the middle of the 17th century, the town received new privileges and was resettled by German immigrants.

Geography

Černošín is located about east of Tachov and west of Plzeň. It lies in the Plasy Uplands. The highest point is the hill Vlčí hora at above sea level. The stream Černošínský potok flows through the town proper. The Mže River flows along the southern municipal border. Its tributary, the stream Kosový potok, forms the western municipal border near Třebel and Záhoří, before it merges with the Mže just outside the territory of Černošín.
