Prague Gothic Cathedral
For
more than 600 years, the roofs of the Castle have been overlooked by the
towers of the Gothic Cathedral. The Cathedral, the seat of the Archbishop
of Prague, was where the Coronations of the Kings of Bohemia were held
until 1836. It is also where Saints, Kings, Princes and Emperors of
Bohemia are buried. St. Wenceslas Chapel in the cathedral was built
directly above the Saint's tomb by Peter Parler. "Charles IV donated many
relics to the church all decorated with gold, silver and precious stones.
No other King had enriched and honored the church so grandly and
magnificently" (from the Chronicle of Frances of Prague, 2nd half of the
14th century).
