Welcome to the Audio Tour

Our audio tour is intended for those visiting the Jáchymov Hell Trail, and for audiences from around the world looking to learn more about the history of the Ore Mountains and the communist-era prison camps that dominated this landscape in the 1950s. If you are hiking the trail, simply use the buttons below to hear our historians and guides walk you through the historical sites. If you are visiting Jáchymov remotely, this audio tour is complete with photographs and maps to help you experience it from anywhere in the world. 

Please note that, for now, this website relies on your wifi or cellular connection. At some locations along the route, it may be difficult to download the audio, text, and photos in our guide. 

You can also take the audio tour using our map feature. Instead of moving through the tour chronologically, simply click on any of the locations highlighted on the map to hear the audio guide, see images, or read more.
