The brewery Cerná Hora...
...is one of the last breweries in Moravia and Bohemia, which is preserved till nowadays in its original design, as built by its founders almost 500 years ago. The first written mention about the brewery is in the instrument dated back to the 28th of October 1530. It is believed, that the brewery was put in existence much earlier. Since feudal times till the end of the 19th century, the brewery was owned and managed by the owners of property and mansion. There was Peasant joint - stock company for brewing founded in 1896 in Cerná Hora, which ran the brewery till nationalization. Exactly 100 years since that, in 1996, the new joint - stock company was established, which owns and manages the brewery in present times.
The original brewing technology is still preserved in brewery, as being brewed through centuries. That is one of the reasons why the Cerná Hora beer is currently considered as superior, first - rate Czech beer, which has earned a plenty of awards and recognition from numerous beer degustations and competitions.
