Not far from Prague is the ancient city of Kutuna Gora, called the Czechs of the Jewishness of the state. Back in the days of the Czech kingdom, silver was mined here, so adventurers from all over Europe gathered in Kutnu Mountain.
The name of the city in translation means “mountain of the old cassock”. Legend says that in the area of one of the mountain villages, a righteous monk stopped relaxing. In a dream, he saw a lot of silver ingots hidden near one of the hills. Waking up, the monk found a place that appeared to him in a dream, and it was strewn with silver. Subsequently, people who founded a rich city called Kutuna Gora began to settle in the vicinity.
Residents of the city are very proud of their main temple – the Cathedral of St. Barbara. After all, it is this righteous man who is considered the patroness of the miners. The cathedral is decorated with the only preserved gallery of Gothic and Renaissance painting.
The historical center of the city, along with two main cathedrals – St. Barbaras and the Cathedral of the Resurrection of the Virgin Mary replenished the list of sights of UNESCO.
The city is also famous for an old chapel with a span. The oldest structure in the city is the Cathedral of St. Yakub.
