13/43.- Prague, Novomestská Radnice

Well, I hope you could understand what 'Novomestská radnice' means. What? You couldn’t ... No problem, it means New Town Town Hall ("Novomestská" = new town, and "radnice" = Town Hall). In case you want to know I’ll tell you that no, I don’t speak Czech

This building dates from 1377, the tower was finished in 1425-26, and the entrance hall columns were added in the 15th century. In front of the building stands a monument to Jan Zelivsky, who in 1419 threw the New Town Counselors out of the window.

We will now go to Karlúv Most, my favorite sight in Prague ...
