Schneeberg is a historic mining town located in the western part of the Ore Mountains (Erzgebirge) in Saxony, Germany. The city's development is closely tied to silver mining, which began in the 15th century and led to significant prosperity during the Renaissance period.
The town's skyline is dominated by the late Gothic St. Wolfgang's Church, one of the largest hall churches in Saxony, which stands as a testament to the wealth generated by the mining industry. Schneeberg's cultural heritage is deeply rooted in its mining traditions, which are reflected in its museums, architecture, and local customs. The town center features well-preserved buildings from various historical periods, particularly from the 16th to 19th centuries.
Today, Schneeberg is known for its traditional crafts, particularly the production of wooden folk art and its connection to the Ore Mountain mining culture, which has been recognized as UNESCO World Heritage.
