Kutna Hora is a nice town about 65 km. south-east of Prague. It was a silver mining town in medieval times. In fact, in the 13th century rich silver deposits were discovered in the vicinity of this town. The highlight of Kutna Hora is the gotic Curch of S. Barbora. Its building begun in 1368 and was completed only in 1905. The construction work was interrupted several times. It was financed by the miners' guild. The church has many frescoes inside. I went to Kutna Hora by train, from Hlavni nądrazi. The train stopped in Sedlec. There I took a bus to Kutna Hora. Otherwise I should have walked at least three kilometers. I should recommend not to go to Kutna Hora on sundays, because there are not many buses from Sedlec to the town and vice versa.

Very good tips about Prague. We found the Italian food to be quite good surprisingly-even better than a few places in Rome. | mikelisaanna Sun Dec 11, 2005 04:22 UTC
We loved our trip to Prague and Kutna Hora. Glad to see that you were able to also visit them. | illudiumqh36 Thu Aug 25, 2005 14:19 UTC
Eh si Praga e' veramente un gioiellino, con la neve pare poi sia da favola... da mettere in cantiere, ciao | Raimix Thu Aug 25, 2005 06:58 UTC
