The article continues in the analysis of extinct names of water mills in a part of Bohemia, the localisation of which had not been known before. The author determines their localization and follows the development of their names. The reason for the extinction of old names was not only the end of existence of the mill, but mainly changes of the mill-owners, change of the kind of production of these small industrial objects and even the demolishing of the water-mills ordered by local authorities.

The paper is focused on the names of mineral springs in the central part of Western Bohemian Spa area, their origins and changes. The majority of those fountains was called after the neighbouring villages, where they are known by local inhabitants as sources of delicious water. This article concentrates on some of them, which got special names - originally after location, character and savour. During the 19th century, they were newly named - after saints, clergymen and royal personalities. The owners of mineral sources, who profited here heavily, led a struggle against competitors owning other springs and there and then, some wells were destructed. Other damages were caused by wrong amelioration or road construction. With the extinction of the well even its name was extinct.
