The article deals with the oronym 'Kralovka' - a name of a well-known and attractive tourist destination in Jizerske hory (the Jizera Mountains/Isergebirge). This oronym shows how difficult it was to find proper Czech equivalents for former German toponyms in areas inhabited by German ethnicity before 1945. The oronym 'Kralovka' does not correspond with a semantic motivation of the former name 'Konigshohe', which is of deantroponymic origin. That is why an official name 'Nekras' was proposed in 1950's. This name with an unclear etymology is evidenced in 16th century; however, it has not caught on.

In reviewing of glassmaking history in Lusatian mountains there is necessary to study thoroughly not only the archive records, which are scarse for the medieval and early modern ages, but also the old regional literature of homeland. There can be found some toponyms, hydronyms and oronyms which concern the history of glassworks. For the same reason there are pursued the card-register sources too. From written and card-index quotations there were excerped many datas which refer to extinct glassworks in the traced territory. They aided to localize some places of obsolete glass activities and the found relicts confirmed their existence. The accompanying deposits of customary ceramics helped to state the approximate operation period of these glassworks. The begin of glass undertaking in this part of North Bohemia has been shifted to the half of the 13th century. More often the toponyms were applied, less often the hydronyms. They cover the parts of previous Děčín and Česká Lípa districts, that is the region of Lusatian mountains and in the west direction the Děčín highlands.
