A Tip for a Trip – Crystal Valley

Glassmaking has a deep and ancient tradition in the Czech region. In part, this is due to the appropriate natural conditions that initially provided almost everything needed for glass production. Above all, however, it was the skill and diligence of glassmakers who gave their products outstanding properties. Enterprising traders then made Czech glass a world-famous term.

The Crystal Valley is a project whose aim is to create conditions for utilizing the potential of glass, jewelery and jewelery in the Liberec Region. Visitors can go on a journey through the glass and jewelery museums, also visit the glassworks and try the production (glass blowing) and participate in a number of creative workshops (jewelery courses).
