Description:

1 hour from Prague lies a once mighty silver mining town from medieval Bohemia—Kutna Hora. Explore this UNESCO World Heritage-listed town, hear about its Bohemian history, and admire its diverse architecture.

Your tour starts with a visit to Sedlec Ossuary, “the bone chapel,” one of the most visited attractions in the country, featuring a collection of skulls and bones from nearly 70,000 people. The chapel is artistically decorated and furnished with bones, including an enormous chandelier that contains at least one of every bone in the human body.

As you stroll through the town your guide tells you about the mining days and points out the different influences in architecture, with restored medieval, Renaissance, Baroque, and Gothic buildings—such as the Hrádek Castle, the Plague Column, and the St. James Church.

Visit St. Barbara's Church, one of the most famous Gothic churches in Europe, and see its valuable murals. Walk to the Italian Court and the royal mint and learn about its history as an economic powerhouse of the Bohemian kingdom.
