The Church of St. Barbara, also known as St. Barbara’s Cathedral is one of the most famous buildings in Kutná Hora. The hilltop cathedral was built over five centuries and is considered to be a fine example of Bohemian Gothic architecture. Inside are medieval frescoes, chapels and elaborate reliefs and statues. Construction started in the late 14th century during a time of economic prosperity in the city due to the silver mines. Several long periods of delay meant that the church wasn’t actually completed until 1905\. It is dedicated to St. Barbara, the patron saint of miners. The grandiose appearance of the three-spired exterior is impressive. Bring a pair of binoculars or a camera with a good zoom to get a close look at the many statues of bats, frogs, winged rams and demons that sit on top of the church. Tour the cavernous interior. Much of the internal decor dates back to 19th-century restorations, but there are also a few older pieces. Survey the church’s medieval frescoes. These feature the life of a medieval mining town as well as religious themes. Look at the stained-glass windows, some of which depict medieval mining techniques and ore trading. There are also statues of miners as well as those of biblical figures adorning the church. Lift your gaze up to the magnificent ceiling, which is decorated with miners’ coats of arms. Check out the main altar, behind which is a magnificent wooden relief of the Last Supper. Go to the rear of the church where you’ll see the organ pipes topped by figures of angels playing musical instruments. The Church of St. Barbara is a 10-minute walk from Palackeho Square and the city centre. The church is open daily, although hours vary by season. An admission fee is charged, but there are discounts for children, students and retirees. While you are here, take advantage of the church’s position on top of a hill and admire the magnificent views of the city and surrounding countryside. ## Plan a trip to see Church of St. Barbara Price found within the past 48 hours.

Spoilt for choice for decent places to eat also. Wonderful base for exploring Holešovice, City Centre and the surrounding areas. Tram stops practically outside. Only criticism is the check in, as building is unstaffed relies heavily on kiosk and clear information. Kiosk is easy enough to use, once you get the hang of it, but doesn't have the most user friendly interface.
