Kutná Hora Essentials

Once a medieval silver-mining powerhouse, Kutná Hora features a high concentration of Gothic and Baroque architecture. The UNESCO-listed center is dominated by the five-nave St. Barbara's Church and the royal Italian Court, which once served as the central mint. Nearby Sedlec hosts the world-famous ossuary decorated with the remains of 40,000 people and the Cathedral of Our Lady, a pioneering example of the Baroque Gothic style. The town's narrow streets also house the 15th-century Stone Fountain and the Bohemian Museum of Silver, offering access to original medieval mine shafts.

Kutná Hora: The Silver Town

75 min1.3 km7 étapes

Kutná Hora grew rich on silver. From the late thirteenth century its mines fed the Bohemian treasury, and from 1300 the Prague groschen was struck here. This walk follows the silver through the UNESCO-listed old town: the royal mint at the Italian Court, the burgher houses its money built, a Gothic fountain, the Hrádek mining museum, the Jesuit College terrace and the Cathedral of Saint Barbara. Seven stops, about an hour and a quarter on foot. The walk starts at the Italian Court on Havlíčkovo náměstí, a few minutes' walk from Palackého náměstí, the main square.
