The Einigkeit mine (also Einigkeitschacht; Czech Důl Svornost) is an abandoned mine in the Czech town of Jáchymov in the Bohemian part of the Ore Mountains. Radon-containing springs discovered during mining are still used in the town's spa facilities today, with the spa company also owning and operating the Einigkeit mine.
The Einigkeit mine, together with tunnel no. 1, is a site within the "Jáchymov Mining Cultural Landscape" of the Ore Mountains Mining Region, which has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2019.
