The Cathedral of St. Barbara is a stunning masterpiece from the Late Gothic period, nestled in the picturesque region of Bohemia. It's one of only four cathedral-type buildings in this area and has earned its rightful place on the UNESCO World Heritage List. This accolade is shared with the Cathedral of the Assumption of Our Lady and St. John the Baptist, as well as the historic heart of Kutná Hora.
As you wander through its grand halls, you'll be captivated by the intricate details and soaring arches. The cathedral's design reflects the rich history and artistic ambition of the time. Kutná Hora itself, with its charming cobblestone streets and medieval charm, offers a perfect backdrop for this architectural gem. Make sure to take a moment to appreciate the breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape from the cathedral; it's a sight that will linger in your memory long after you leave.
