General presentation
Kutná Hora et Bohême centrale
Ranked mining town, Gothic cathedral, spectacular ossuary, castles and easy to combine countryside from Prague.
To understand what Kutná Hora and Central Bohemia are, we must look at the side of St.Barbe, Ossuary of Sedlec and Italian Court. These places show a territory marked by urban life, heritage and the countryside and allow you to move from emblematic sites to more intimate stages.
See all
For a stay of 1 to 3 days, a quiet rhythm works well. Also to be expected: very visited on excursion and rather short stay. The trip can be organised without a car if the drop point and local connections are selected in advance. Accessibility varies from site to site and deserves to be checked step by step.

World Heritage
Paysage d’élevage et de dressage de chevaux d’attelage cérémoniels à Kladruby nad Labem
In Kladruby nad Labem, the landscape was designed for the breeding and dressing of ceremonial horses. Pastures, tree paths, stables, farms and near the Elbe make up an area where each road and plot meets the needs of horses, with a very functional elegance.
Town or village
Sainte-Barbe
Sainte-Barbe dominates Kutná Hora The Gothic cathedral recalls the richness of the money that shaped the city, and its terrace opens up a beautiful view of the rooftops and the valley. The cathedral is a place where you can enjoy the views of the city.
Town or village
Ossuaire de Sedlec
Sedlec's ossuary strikes with its decoration composed of human bones, chandelier, garlands and coat of arms included. The place is short to visit but difficult to forget, because it turns a funeral chapel into a very visual meditation on death.
Town or village
Cour italienne
The Cour italienne was a centre of royal and monetary power of Kutná Hora, linked to the striking of money. Its courses, rooms and exhibitions complete the mining city with a more political angle, between residence, monetary workshop and views towards Sainte-Barbe.
