A small northwestern part of the municipal territory extends into the Central Bohemian Uplands and includes the highest point of Lovosice, which is a contour line at the foot of the Lovoš mountain at 310 m (1,020 ft) above sea level.

The town is situated on the left bank of the Elbe River, which forms the northern municipal border.

Duke Vladislaus II gave this small village to the Strahov monastery.

In 1850, the railroad was built, which supported the industrialization of the town and accelerated development.

[2] During World War II, due to the Munich Agreement, Lovosice fell within a German occupation zone, commonly called Sudetenland.

Besides a cargo port on the Elbe River, the town has a great connection to Prague and Germany via the D8 motorway.
