Wiesenthal was first mentioned in 1431, but it can be assumed that the place was laid out in the 14th century. At that time, the entire Wiesenthal was in the possession of the Lords of Schönburg auf Pürstein and fell to Alesch von Schönburg when the brothers Alesch and Wilhelm divided it in 1431. During the Hussite riots, the place became deserted and was described as desolate in 1449.

At the beginning of the 16th century, after silver was found in the Pöhlbachtal between Keilberg and Fichtelberg , towns were founded and repopulated. In 1525 the border between the rule Schönburg and the kingdom of Bohemia was established along the Pöhlbach . The Wiesenthal northwest of the brook remained Schönburgish (until 1559) and is today's Unterwiesenthal in Germany. The opposite bank of the brook came under the royal rule of Preßnitz in Bohemia, whose owner was Kaspar Schlick . In the course of the Reformation , Bohemian Wiesenthal and Stolzenhain became Protestant. They belonged to the Unterwiesenthal parish .

After Duke Georg von Sachsen, Wyssental (Bergstadt Neustadt im Wiesenthal, also just Neustadt, later Oberwiesenthal, city charter from 1530) granted mountain freedom on March 19, 1527 , the Bohemian King and later Emperor Ferdinand I granted Böhmisch Wiesenthal town charter . During this time there was brisk mining and huts and hammers were built on both sides of the Wiesenthal. In 1601, Emperor Rudolf II. Bohemian Wiesenthal granted the privileges of a royal mountain town . In 1623 the Schlicken were expropriated after the Battle of the White Mountains . As a result of the Counter-Reformation , Protestants ( exiles ) emigrated to neighboring Saxon towns by the middle of the 17th century , and Böhmisch Wiesenthal lost most of its residents. In 1650, Böhmisch Wiesenthal and Stolzenhain were given a common Catholic church.

With the decline of mining, several glove factories sprang up in the city, and the trimmers' trade was established. Electric lighting was introduced in 1890, and in the same year a steam engine was used for the first time in Austria-Hungary in Böhmisch Wiesenthal to drive sewing machines.

After the First World War , Böhmisch Wiesenthal was added to the newly created Czechoslovakia . Due to the Munich Agreement , the city belonged from 1938 to 1945 to the district of Sankt Joachimsthal , administrative district Eger , in the Reichsgau Sudetenland of the German Empire .

In 1939 Böhmisch Wiesenthal had 1,230 inhabitants and there were 180 houses. After the Second World War , the almost exclusively German-Bohemian population was expropriated and expelled , and Český Wiesenthal, which was now remote on the isolated border with what would later become the GDR, completely deserted and lost its town charter .

In 1947, Český Wiesenthal was given the new name Loučná . In 1948 the place was incorporated into the Okres Karlovy Vary-okolí when the Okres Jáchymov was dissolved . 1949 Háj u Loučné was incorporated. During the territorial reform of 1960 Loučná came to Okres Chomutov . In the 1970s, České Hamry (Bohemian Hammer) was incorporated with Výsada (Lauxmühle), these villages are now part of Vejprty. At this time, the dilapidated church was also demolished. Between 1986 and 1991 the municipality lost its independence and belonged to Vejprty .

In 1992 Loučná became an independent municipality again. The actual place today consists almost exclusively of weekend houses.

The place has been connected to Oberwiesenthal since 1995 by a border crossing for pedestrians and cyclists, which has also created a well-frequented cheap goods market here. Since October 10, 2006 Loučná pod Klínovcem is a town again.
