Hlinka (German: Glemkau) is a municipality and village in Bruntál District in the Moravian-Silesian Region of the Czech Republic.

The name, which is a diminutive form of hlína (i.e. 'clay'), is derived from the clay quarrying that took place here.

In the northern part is located Velký Pavlovický rybník Nature Reserve with Pavlovický Pond I, which has extraordinary importance as a stop of migratory birds and nesting places of water birds.

It was an agricultural village that was part of the Osoblaha estate owned by the bishops of Olomouc.

After the properties of the family were confiscated in 1622 for their participation in the Bohemian Revolt, it was joined to the Dívčí Hrad estate and shared its owners and destinies.
