Sightseeing  :  Czech Republic  :  Hlavní Město Praha  :  Prague  :  Day Trips

Visit the one of the most well-known burial grounds in the world - magical ossuary in Sedlec and the Gothic St. Barbara´s Cathedral in Kutna Hora - the second richest city in the Kingdom of Bohemia.Kutna Hora's Sedlec Ossuary, or "bone church" is one of the most well-known burial grounds in the world. This chapel is decorated with more than 40 000 human bones, which are arranged into a chandelier, a Schwarzenberg Coat-of-Arms, and numerous other decorative touches. Kutná Hora has been on the UNESCO list of cultural heritage sites since 1995.

But there is far more to see to this town than skeleton-made furniture. Kutná Hora was once the second richest city in the Kingdom of Bohemia, thanks to its medieval silver mining centre. The former wealth of the town is reflected today in the variety of architectural monuments and the preserved structure of the town centre. Our tour of Kutná Hora will take you to the Neo-Gothic St Barbara’s Cathedral, through the streets of Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque town houses and to visit a unique stone fountain from the 15th century.
