Bone church was the highlight

We took 3 sidetrips in total, of all the three guides, she was the best. Sarka was able to explain in details all the history of each sites. She was able to gather the group from 3 different continents and we enjoyed each other company. It was a Good Friday when we traveled and she looped in her mom to help us book a place for lunch as many places were either full or closed. She took care of us very well from ordering food, paying for the food and even ensure that we go to places where free toilets were provided. Keep up the good job and wishing you all the best in your future endeavours. Thank you for the wonderful trip.

  About Kutna Hora
  Kutna Hora city started to grow around a Cistercian monastery in the 12th century. The fame and wealth of the city came with silver mining a century later. Kutna Hora grew rapidly to be the second biggest city after Prague in the area. The prosperity of the medieval community can be seen in the churches that were built. The most famous of them is the Cathedral of St Barbara, the patron saint of miners.
  

  In the outskirts of Kutna Hora is the chilling Sedlec Ossuary famous for its human bones. This is a Roman Catholic chapel in the cemetery of the Church of All Saints. In early 16 century mass graves were exhumed and more than 40 000 bones were used to decorate the chapel. This tradition of using skulls and bones, real or not, in decoration was widespread in late medieval Europe. The purpose was largely symbolic, a reminder of the inevitability of death.

  Mikulov Wine Region in South Moravia is famous for its vineyards. If you think Czech Republic associates only with beer then think again!

  About Lednice
  Lednice Palace and Grounds is a fabulous example of wealth the nobility had in Europe in the 19th century. The Lichtenstein family had huge landholdings in the area that they had gathered gradually over the centuries through conquering, marrying, and buying.
