Kutna Hora

Few cities in Central Bohemia have a history as closely tied to medieval silver mining as Kutná Hora. The deposits worked here helped finance the medieval Kingdom of Bohemia and made the town one of its most important urban centres. Its historic core, together with the Church of St Barbara and the Cathedral of Our Lady at Sedlec, is inscribed on UNESCO’s World Heritage List. St Barbara’s soaring Gothic church is closely associated with the town’s miners, while the Sedlec Ossuary is renowned for its decoration made from human bones. The Vrchlice stream runs through the town’s setting beyond its former mining ground. Continue to other webcams in Central Bohemia to compare urban settings around Kutná Hora.
