Small city, big history

by JustPerfect - last update: Mar 5, 2006

The old city

The domain of this city
Here were living people since midle stone Age. King city became Klatovy in 1262.
The city has been established 1262 by Premysl Otakar II, don't know his name in english, anyway he is the king of czech which we call King from iron and gold.
Klatovy is a small city with 25000 people living there. It has a few interesting spots around, also some unique places like Barrock Pharmacy. There are just two of them in Europe.
This part of Czech is a nice travel tip if your budget is not so high to spend a long time in Prague. Here is everything relatively cheep and the history is very rich.

Streets

Almost all streets in Klatovy are in 90? angle to each other. Just two crossings are not like this.
The square is on every side 100m long and has 5houses on each side.
There are a lot of things I tell you in my tips. This place is great if you like to see more from Czech Republic.
That is my mom

My roots

And the reason I write about this city???
1980 I was born here and I lived here until 1998. My whole family lives still here, they don't travel and speak just czech. I don't know how it comes, that I was born in this family. Anyway I love them all, they are great.
My mom says: "just make a lot of pictures, this is the best way to travel!"
