Jiřetín pod Jedlovou (German: Sankt Georgenthal) is a municipality and village in Děčín District in the Ústí nad Labem Region of the Czech Republic.

The historic centre with the area of Křížová hora is well preserved and is protected by law as an urban monument zone.

In 1949, the municipality got a distinction pod Jedlovou ("below Jedlová") to distinguish it from other places named Jiřetín.

The commemorative coin of Roman Emperor Claudius Gothicus, who ruled between 268 and 270, was founded and cast as Quintillus.

[4] In 1509 King Vladislaus II gave the town the right to exploit gold, silver, copper, lead, tin, and iron for twenty years.

The closest dated glassworks are located south of the village of Lesné in the Dolní Podluží territory.

[4] According to available data, Jiřetín was founded in 1539, when a place was selected, and from 1548 to 1553 the mining town was set to a regular rectangular floor plan.

[4] The initial development of the town was influenced by the numerous advantages that arose from the founding privilege put together by Georg of Schleinitz on 12 November 1554.

The main mining work in the 16th century was the hereditary adit of Saint Christopher, its entrance can be seen in front of the house of Jiřetín No.

The town's privileges included two annual markets, St. George (April 24), and St. Martin's (November 11).

In 1656, Jiřetín's pastor stated that mines of gold, silver, copper, and also coal were put into operation.

In 1750, the mining of ores was carried out in the hereditary cathedral of Saint Christopher on the Cross Mountain, in 1781 Jan Evangelista adit was built.

In 1681 he bought the rumby estate of Prince Anton Florian from Liechtenstein, whose family shared the destiny of Jiřetín until 1919.

In 1804, after the destruction of the manipulation building, the ore had to be weighed into Saxon Freiberg, which was very wasteful, so the mining did not continue.

The junction under Jiřetín carries the unofficial name Na Mýtě, probably to prove that the old trade route, which led to toll collection in Tolštejn, was conducted here.

[4] After World War II, the German population was expelled and the area was repopulated by Czech people, mostly from inland.

Part of the building houses a small museum focusing on the history of Tolštejn Castle and silver ore mining.
