Czech’s greatest ruler, Emperor Charles IV, threw the first foundation stone for this late-Gothic cathedral in1344. Further Renaissance and Baroque decorations and constructions were added later on until its completion in 1929, making it the largest and most important church in the Czech Republic. The “Good King” Wenceslas was laid to rest here in Chapel of St Wenceslas. Upon entering the church, you will be greeted by massive stained glass arts depicting historical and religious events.
