Kunětice Mountain (Kunětická hora in Czech) is a mountain in the Pardubice Region of the Czech Republic, about 6 km north-northeast from the city of Pardubice.
Kunětice Mountain sits in a plain, above which it rises 82 meters (305 m above sea level). Geologically, the mountain is a laccolith, dating from the Cenozoic era. Toward the end of the 19th century, the slopes of the mountain were used as a quarry, at such a pace that the mountain was in danger of disappearing.
The mountain is best known for Kunětice Mountain Castle, a castle at its summit. Below the mountain lies the village of Kunětice. A modern water reservoir has been built inside the top part of the mountain.
Kunětická hora (Kunětická hill) is a tertiary volcanic body elevated 80m above surrounding Cretaceous sediments. Various zeolites and strontianite could be found in cavities of nephelinic tephrite. Slopes of hill were opened with quarries - U buku SW, Maršov W, Na Vinici S, their activity stopped in the 1920s due to the risk of destroying the castle.
