Written for the Mediaeval Towns series by a Bohemian count and historian, the book first tells the city’s story from its legendary beginnings through the age of Charles IV and the executions after the Battle of the White Mountain into modern times. It then guides the reader through the palaces, churches and monasteries, the Bohemian Museum, and walks within and beyond the city.
Both a history and a guidebook, and a fine introduction to one of Europe’s most beautiful cities. Download the free EPUB.
