2n dia. Karlstejn, Praga i Pacov

In the morning we visited Karlstejn.

Karlstejn Castle is a large Gothic castle founded 1348 AD by Charles IV, Holy Roman Emperor-elect and King of Bohemia. The castle served as a place for safekeping the imperial Regalia as well as the Bohemian/Czech crown jewels, holy relics, and other royal treasures.

In the afternoon we did a guided tour round Prague. We visited Saint Vitu's Cathedral, a Roman Catholic cathedral in Prague. This church is an excellent example of Gothic arquitecture and is the biggest and most important church in the country. After that, we walked through Prague's old Town and we saw the astronomical clock, one of the city's most popular tourist attractions.

Finally our students met their host families.

See you tomorrow
