History & geography

History

The first written mention of Mašťov is from the first half of the 12th century, when it was awarded to the local aristocrat Milhost by Duke Soběslav I. Throughout seven centuries the town changed hands multiple times due to political instability, economic hardship, and several wars that also subjected the town to plunder, disease, fire, and famine. In 1918, when the independent country of Czechoslovakia was formed with Mašťov located in the northwestern part of the country, the town was still dealing with the after effects of World War I, such as homelessness and unemployment. Gradually the town recovered, but the booming economy was affected by the worldwide depression of the 1930s. During World War II, Mašťov was annexed to Nazi Germany through the Munich Agreement and administered as part of the Reichsgau Sudetenland, with all Czech residents forced to leave their homes and move to the central part of Bohemia. After the war, the town slowly recovered but never fully developed into the business and industrial town it had been before.

Geography

Mašťov is located about southwest of Chomutov and east of Karlovy Vary. It lies in the Doupov Mountains. The highest point is at above sea level. The fishpond Sedlec is located in the northwestern part of the municipal territory and together with its surroundings, it is protected as a nature reserve. There are also several other small fishponds.
