Most (German: Brüx) is a city in the northwest of the Czech Republic, in Ústí nad Labem Region. It is approximately 48 miles (77 km) northwest of Prague along the Bílina River and southwest of Ústí nad Labem. Population: 68,300 (2004).
The Latin Cosmas Chronicle mentions a Slavonic settlement below the Hněvín Castle called Gnevin Pons (Czech: Hněvínský most) in 1040. The royal town was later owned by the Premyslides and from the 13th century became predominantly German. Both Czech and German names mean "bridge". It had very many medieval churches.
Most is the heart of the northern Bohemian lignite-mining and also produces chemicals, steel, and ceramics.
In the 1970s, the town was completely relocated due to the expansion of the coal fields. The government and the people successfully moved the medieval Gothic Church of St. Mary to the new town.
