Day
tour to Kutna Hora
Afternoon at the Old Town Square
| Started the day with a trip out of Prague to Kutna Hora. | |
|
First stop St. Barbara's Church |
| Then to the ossuary in the All Saint's Cemetery Chapel. Bones from 40,000 people are, more or less, preserved there. Here is a picture of a chandelier made out of bones one of the many bone artifacts. I've found lots of people online who said the ossuary was one of the most interesting things they ever saw? It didn't do much for me. | |
|
Then to lunch in the town square |
| Kutna Hora had a picturesque town square but nothing that spoke to being, "one of the best preserved medieval villages in Europe." All in all for me the tour to Kutna Hora did not live up to its billing. | |
|
We did see lots of yellow fields of rapeseed. They were very pretty. |
| Peggi and I wandered around the Old Town area in the afternoon. There was this parade with these large birdlike manikins. | |
