Private Guided Tour to Kutná Hora from Prague

Duration

6 hours

Overview

Begin with pickup at your Prague accommodations at the time of your choice, then travel to Kutná Hora in a private vehicle. Learn about Kutná Hora’s Middle Ages history as Bohemia’s second city, and about the silver mines that helped it prosper. Visit the Church of St. Barbara to see Bohemian gothic architecture at its finest, from medieval frescoes of everyday life to the elaborate peaked roofline. Explore some of Kutná Hora’s narrow streets on foot, then continue to the Royal Mint, where Prague’s Grossus coin was issued by King Wenceslaus of Bohemia. If desired, descend into the medieval mines, where silver for the coins was extracted by hand in terrifying working conditions.
