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.
Kutna Hora Day Trip
After meeting in Prague city centre, we'll set off by bus to Kutná Hora, located around an hour’s drive away from the capital of the Czech Republic.
Also known as the “City of Silver”, this beautifully preserved medieval city was once one of the richest sources of silver in Europe. At its peak, in the late 13th century, Kutná Hora produced a third of the total production of silver in Europe.
Throughout our tour, we'll visit the most important monuments in the historic centre, including the Cathedral of St Barbara and Vlašský dvůr, also known as the Italian Court, home to 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 14th century decorated with 40,000 human skeletons.
Amongst the other historical landmarks we'll get to explore are the Stone Fountain, the Church of St. James, Hradek Castle, the Plague Column and the Jesuit College.
At the end of a fascinating six-hour trip learning all about this important Czech Republic town, we'll head back to Prague, where you'll be dropped off in the city centre.
