Kutná Hora: one of the Czech Republic’s most fascinating UNESCO World Heritage towns. During the Middle Ages, this Bohemian town became a wealthy silver-mining center, rivaling Prague in wealth, political influence, and artistic ambition, leaving behind a remarkable architectural legacy. Founded in the 13th century following the discovery of silver, Kutná Hora grew into one of the wealthiest cities in the Kingdom of Bohemia, producing a significant share of Europe’s silver. In the 14th century, it was elevated to a royal city and became home to the royal mint at the Italian Court (Vlašský dvůr), where Bohemian coins were minted. In the video: Kutná Hora’s medieval old town; the magnificent late-Gothic St. Barbara’s Cathedral; the Sedlec Ossuary, where thousands of human bones were arranged into intricate artistic decorations; and the Cathedral of the Assumption of Our Lady and Saint John the Baptist.
