Private Tour: Kutna Hora from Prague

Points forts

Inclus

Itinéraire

1. Kutna Hora became extremely rich thanks to the abundance of high-quality silver mined in the town. This allowed the construction of such amazing sacral structures as the gothic cathedral of St.Barbara, the main dominant of Kutna Hora, the biggest cathedral in Central Europe. Richly decorated, devoted to St.Barbara, the patron of miners (and also the victims of a swift death).

   30 minEntrée incluse

2. The church was built upon on the ground sprinkled with the holy soil brought in from Jerusalem, therefore the cemetery around it became in high demand. When the capacity ceased to suffice in times of the Plague and the Hussite Wars, a blind monk started arranging bones of 40,000 people into pyramids. Later, when the chapel became a property of the Schwarzenberg noble house, the bones were rearranged into ornaments, coats of arms, chandeliers etc. in order to honor the dead and remind the living of our own mortality. NOTE: Effective from 2020, taking photos is forbidden.

   20 minEntrée incluse

3. Make your own coin and bring it home as a souvenir! The Italian Court served as a mint, Royal Palace and later also as a prison and school (concurrently!). We will also take you to the luxurious audience hall and the richly decorated chapel.

   1 hEntrée incluse

4. The Cathedral of the Assumption of Our Lady and Saint John the Baptist may look a somewhat stern compared to the Cathedral of St. Barbara since the Jesuits did not indulge in showing their wealth through rich decorations. Nonetheless, the tall interior designed by the world-famous Santini is stunning its own way. Do not miss the chance to climb up to the upper floor via the amazing spiral stairs!

   30 minEntrée incluse

5. We will pass by this tall dominant of the town which can be seen well from the terrace in front of the Cathedral of St.Barbara.

About Prague

Prague dresse ses flèches sur la Vltava : château perché, pont bordé de statues et vieille ville médiévale restée presque intacte.

Le château de Prague, l'un des plus grands ensembles castraux au monde, couronne la colline de Hradčany, avec la cathédrale Saint-Guy en son centre et les minuscules maisons de la Ruelle d'Or nichées derrière. En contrebas, les palais baroques et les jardins en terrasses de Malá Strana descendent vers le pont Charles, bordé de statues de saints et animé dès l'aube.

Top-ranked sights in Prague: Charles Bridge (Karluv Most), Prague Castle (Pražský Hrad), Prague Old Town Square (Staromestské Námestí).
