Kutna Hora Half-Day Trip
Popularly known as The City of Silver, Kutná Hora is a fascinating thirteenth-century mining town in the region of Bohemia. Set off on a half-day trip from Prague to this UNESCO-listed city accompanied by an English-speaking guide.
Itinerary
Depart from Prague city center at 12.45pm on a comfortable air-conditioned coach to Kutná Hora, located around an hour’s drive away from the capital of the Czech Republic.
Also known as the “Silver Treasure House of Kingdom”, this beautifully preserved medieval city was once one of the richest sources of silver in Europe. At its peak, in the late thirteenth century, Kutná Hora produced one-third of the total production of silver in Europe.
Upon arrival, you will be led on a walking tour around its historic center and enter Saint Barbara’s Church and Corpus Christi Chapel. Next, head to Vlašský dvůr, also known as the Italian Court, and discover the former Central Mint of Prague. This complex includes the Royal Audience Hall where Vladislav Jagiello was elected the King of Bohemia in 1471.
The highlight of the excursion is the visit the Sedlec Ossuary, a small Roman Catholic chapel dating from the fourteenth century decorated with 40,000 human skeletons.
Explore other numerous culturally important monuments, like the Stone Fountain, and then you’ll have time to wander around the second largest city in the Czech Republic at your own leisure.
The coach will drop you off at the centre of Prague at 3pm.
