Why visit Kutna Hora?
Kutná Hora demands a pilgrimage for its unapologetic commitment to the macabre and the medieval. Start at the Sedlec Ossuary, where the remains of 40,000 individuals have been repurposed into grim, intricate chandeliers and garlands of bone. The sheer sensory weight of this space is unmatched. From there, ascend to the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Assumption and Saint John the Baptist, a soaring Gothic-Baroque masterpiece that anchors the town’s skyline. The architecture is a testament to the immense wealth once generated by the local silver mines, a history that feels tactile as you traverse the steep, narrow lanes connecting these solemn structures to the imposing Saint Barbara’s Church.
After exploring the vaulted galleries of the Czech Museum of Silver, refuel with a plate of svíčková na smetaně—tender beef sirloin in a rich, velvety root vegetable cream sauce served with pillowy bread dumplings. Pair this with a crisp pint of Pilsner at Dačický Restaurant, a traditional tavern where the low ceilings and dark wood amplify the town’s ancient atmosphere. The Stone House stands as a rare specimen of late-Gothic secular architecture, providing a stark contrast to the nearby Vlašský dvůr, the former royal mint. It is a place where history is not merely observed but felt in the cold stones of the earth.
