Prague Castle
Castillo de Praga
Prague Castle (Pražský hrad, Prague 1) — this is reputed to being one of the largest castles in the world, if not the largest. The most conspicuous site within the castle grounds is St. Vitus Cathedral.
Upon entering it, you will feel as though time stood still. The beautifully decorated interior created by medieval masters is lit by the rays of sunlight which pierce through the beautiful stained-glass windows. In addition, make sure to view the stained-glass windows by the Czech Art Nouveau artist Alfonse Mucha. The cathedral also contains the tombs and remains of important saints and Czech rulers. One can see the tomb of St. Wenceslas here – the patron saint of the Czech lands, St. John of Nepomuk, as well as the last resting places of the emperors Charles IV and Rudolf II. With various rulers using the castle as their residence throughout the centuries, it’s no surprise that the current Czech president has made it his office.
