Kutna Hora - UNESCO Treasure of Czech Republic

One of the richest towns of medieval Europe, a silver mining town which at its peak produced over 30% of European silver: that is the famous UNESCO town in the Czech Republic, Kutna Hora. In this video, you will learn which sights to visit in Kutna Hora, how to get there, and what local restaurants, cafes, and ice-cream places should not escape your sight.
Kutna Hora is a perfect place for a one-day trip from Prague since it's very near. We sincerely hope you will visit and hope our video will help you to discover this UNESCO site to the fullest! #kutnahora #europetravel #realpragueguides

First time in Prague 2008, my friends and I visited Kutna Hora just for the Bone Church. Being young at the time, we missed out on this beautiful town as we had no idea there was much more to see and do. We were hungover and just did no research except for being told that there was a church full of bones in the town. I'll be in Prague for my fifth visit in March and I am tempted to visit again to see the town properly.

Great video. I took a tour from Prague to this city in 2011. I only saw (I think it was) one of the other church grounds, (this place had a concession stand), then we had a lunch break in a nearby square, then of course we went to the other church with the bones that are so famous. Maybe one more place briefly, then back to Prague. I'd have come to this city by myself had I known there was so much to see.

Kutná Hora je moje rodné město,nyní bydlím jinde, ale ráda se sem vracím. Moc děkuji autorům za toto krásné video i bezva návod pro cizince, jak se do Hory rychle a pohodlně dopravit. K.H. je stejně krásná jako Český Krumlov (a možná krásnější), ale zdaleka není tak ,,profláknutá". Procházka nejen kolem Barbory ( ale i Ruthardka, Lucernářovský dům, Vlašský dvůr, Hrádek, ...) mi vždycky spolehlivě zvedne náladu...

[@RealPragueGuides]

Děkujeme! Jsme rádi, že se video líbilo!

[@xsc1000]

Třeba ČD se ji snažily zatajit ještě minulý rok :-) Na té odjezdové tabuli vlaků vždy chyběla, byl tam Kolín a Čáslav. Což způsobovalo cizincům docela problém, protože vlaky na Brno jedou z Prahy dva ve stejný čas, ale jen jeden přes Kutnou Horu. Dalším oříškem pak je lokálka na Kutnou Horu - město, která se ale zrovna hodí při takto zvolené cestě k návratu.

Una bella ciudad Kutná Hora, su arquitectura medieval es maravillosa con sus pequeñas calles empedradas dónde dan batalla al tiempo Castillos, Catedrales, Iglesias, casas bellamente decoradas y un sin fin de construcciones que hablan de la historia a través de sus victrales, frescos y esculturas.

[@juliataylor2623]

Valerie can you tell us in a nutshell why Prague unlike Warsaw was not rebuilt in Communist tradition. Krakow escaped this because both Hitler and Stalin visited and having seen its architecture deemed it too beautiful to destroy. I wonder if the same is true of Prague.

[@roadsectoradventures]

I hope one day I can work on Czech, I really love the Place. It is so Beautiful. One day soon I will be there.

[@paulrogers6274]

Maybe it was built outside the center because it was closer to the raw materials such as stone, sand and lime.

Only 2 hours from Prague by train....

[@Pidalin]

But don't drink too much there or you miss the last train. It's one of the most important touristic places in Czechia, but train connection there is like to some random village. :-) I recommend visit even Kolín which is next to Kutná Hora and has gothic cathedral too and much better connection from Prague. BTW 2:30 "ignore the letters" you became real Czech now :-D

[@petex3909]

delas hezky videa... nekdy zajed do telče..))

[@jirim727]

Great video! But why is the unfinished cathedral near the forest? I need answers.

[@RealPragueGuides]

Because the ground in the town was not stable enough to build, some mining shafts were even below the town. When they were building the church of St. James it started to tilt due to the crack in the bedrock and here where St. Barbara stands today, was the most solid bedrock to build :)

[@jirim727]

@@RealPragueGuides I was low key hoping they did it just for the view... But thanks! You will soon know each and every little historical oddity in this country 😃

[@marcelsvitalsky8993]

Hi, very nice video. However I am pretty sure the name Kutná Hora, or the first part of it, is not derived from kutna - monk's robe - and that it is in fact an adjective derived from the verb kutat(i), archaic synonym of kopat, to dig. Thus Kutná Hora means a mountain of digging, or a mountain where they dig. In older literature this town is often being referred to in plural, e.g. v (or na) Horách Kutných, which reveals even more strongly the nature of the word Kutná as an adjective.

[@user-pg6uf1ce2h]

I come here to get familiar with game map in advance

[@markford4903]

I think the Cathedral’s location was to serve the Miners, since mining operations were away from the town center? BTW Valery; love your personality. Mad sarcasm!

[@RealPragueGuides]

Thanks for guessing! It's a good guess but the reason was a little different. The mining shafts were right below the town and this was the most solid bedrock they could find in the area. Building it within the city was impossible because of the ground instability.

[@petermuscat7305]
