In the 16th century, the Mint of Kuttenberg began to lose its previously developed monopoly. In the middle of the century, the minting of Czech Groschen was stopped, and new thalers were minted, which began to gain more and more popularity. Nevertheless, in the years 1577-1579, the House of Miners was rebuilt in the Renaissance style, shortly before the fire in 1585 that destroyed the castle. The next significant changes took place in the 17th century, when the manor house was repaired and expanded to serve as the seat of higher state offices. However, with the decline in silver mining, the importance of Kuttenberg decreased until the mint was finally closed in 1727.
