Czech Republic

Land of the Bohemian Crown


You will find history in the Czech Republic literally on every corner. The oldest cities were founded during the Middle Ages at the crossroads of trading routes. Coins were minted in them, heavy metals were mined and beer was brewed. Some towns, such as Tábor, were even established as a result of religious reformation. You may easily be able to recognize the most well known and oldest - all of them are located three hours by car from the Capital City of Prague.

 

The Czech lands boast an extraordinarily high number of cultural monuments. Over 2,000 preserved castles and chateaux (more per square mile than any other country in the world!) represent an important part of the national cultural heritage, both in terms of their number and in terms of their historical and artistic value; their significance transcends national borders, and more than a few of these structures are important even in the global cultural context.
