The national cultural heritage site Jeroným Mine is well-conserved abandoned historical underground working of medieval tin ore exploitation. The major mining period lasted from 16th to 17th century, afterwards the production gradually decreased. Its basic characteristics are cited. In connection with intention of making this locality accesible to wider public community (establishment of mining museum), extensive polytematic geoscience monitoring has taken place there at recent time, dominantly concentrating on evaluation of the object geomechanical stability from view both of natural influences and anthropogenic impacts related mainly to accessing activities. In the locality and its surroundings a geological, geomechanical, geophysical, seismic and geomorphological research has been executed. The contribution presents its some selected aspects and results concerning the monitoring of structural and stability conditions with determination of critical places, displays of anthropogenic transformation of surrounding relief and superficial geophysical sounding and seismic vibration analyses.
