history

In 1799 the town of Bergreichenstein founded and leased a glassworks here . In the first third of the 19th century, products from Goldbrunn - primarily rosary beads and hollow glass - enjoyed a good reputation and received several awards.

In 1838, the Goldbrunn settlement conscripted to Reckerberg consisted of seven houses and the glassworks. In 1843 there were 134 people living in the village and there was also a village school. The parish was Aussergefield . Until the middle of the 19th century Goldbrunn remained subordinate to the Dominium Bergreichenstein .

After the abolition of patrimonial Goldbrunn formed from 1850 a district of the community Ziegenruck in the judicial district Bergreichenstein. From 1868 the village belonged to the district of Schüttenhofen . From 1865 on, sheet glass was primarily produced here , and in 1880 the glassworks was one of the last to be shut down in the Bohemian Forest. With the decline of the glassworks, the residents also left the place, so that Goldbrunn was already abandoned in the early 20th century. The remaining buildings were destroyed by the Czechoslovak Army in 1950 to prevent border refugees from using them as hiding places. Only the chimney of the glassworks and parts of the inn remained.
