The Medieval Town of Kutna Hora: Private Day Trip from Prague

0.0(0)PragueFree cancellation

About this activity

Kutna Hora is a charming medieval town in Central Bohemia, just 70 km from Prague. As the second most important town in the Bohemian kingdom after Prague, it enjoyed something of a golden era in the Middle Ages due to the success of its world-famous silver mines and royal patronage. Nowadays, this cultural and architectural gem is one of the most visited UNESCO sites in Czechia – with a wonderfully atmospheric town centre lined with fabulous Gothic buildings, evocative of its wealthy past. On arriving in Kutna Hora you will visit three UNESCO heritage sites beginning with the magnificent Gothic cathedral Church of St Barbara, the patron saint of miners. You will also visit a unique cemetery beneath the Church of All Saints: known as an Ossuary or bone crypt, the Sedlec Chapel is decorated with around 40,000 human bones. Afterwards, enjoy the medieval town as you wander down the cobbled streets towards the “Italian Court”. Finally, enjoy time for lunch before returning to Prague.
