In 2000, a rescue archaeological survey was conducted on the premises of today’s nursing home on the Dómský Hill, the place of early medieval hillfort. During the excavations, three rare early medieval coins were found. These are deniers of the Dukes Jaromír (Cach 1970, no. 256), Vladislav II (Cach 1972, no. 597) and Bedřich (Cach 1972, no. 635). Another, till now unpublished denier of Vratislav II (Cach 1972, no. 352) was found in a grave. These coins illustrate the intensive money circulation at the site (including its hinterland) from which a total of 11 earlier coin finds are known and reflect the importance of the Litoměřice settlement during 10th and 12th centuries.
