The village is situated in the valley of the Kamenice River. Other watercourses in the municipality include the Jedlová Stream, which flows through the Jedlový důl nature reserve, and the streams Červený potok, Jelení potok, Pekelný potok and Hluboký potok. Due to the rugged terrain there are multiple waterfalls in the area. Josefův Důl Reservoir, located in the northwestern part of the municipal territory, was built on the Kamenice in 1976–1982.[3]

History

Around 1690, Count Maximilian II Desfours-Walderode settled the area with German immigrants. The village of Karlov was founded in 1700 and Josefův Důl was founded in 1701, and both villages were named after Maximilian's newborn son, Karl Josef Desfours-Walderode. Dolní Maxov was founded in 1670 and named after Albrecht Maximilian Desfours-Walderode. The livelihood of the inhabitants of the villages was glassmaking, grinding and herding. The first glassworks was built in the 17th century.[4]

The Munich Agreement permitted Nazi Germany to annex the area in 1938 and administer it as part of Reichsgau Sudetenland. Shortly thereafter Karlov was dissolved becoming Horní Maxov and Antonínov. Josefův Důl and Dolní Maxov formed a new municipality named Josefodol. Following World War II, in 1945, the municipality was returned to Czechoslovakia and the German inhabitants were expelled under the terms of Beneš decrees.
