Hraničná () is a ghost town and municipal part of Kraslice in Sokolov District in the Karlovy Vary Region of the Czech Republic.
==History== The settlement emerged in 13th century and belonged to Waldsassen Abbey, which colonized the area. The German name of Markhausen derives from its position at a border (or, demarcation; German Mark (border); Hausen from German Haus(house), i.e. from the fact that there are houses at a border).
