Description
This German-language book presents Prague, the city on the Vltava, as both a cosmopolitan metropolis and a medieval work of art. Its thousand-year history, from its beginnings in the 10th century to the Velvet Revolution of modern times, is revealed through its magnificent buildings, lanes and squares. The Golden City displays a living multicultural diversity that has captivated visitors for centuries, bringing together architectural styles and movements in a unique blend. Traditional churches and monasteries stand alongside distinctive Art Nouveau palaces and a modern cultural scene, while poetry meets pub culture, Gothic splendour meets contemporary architecture, and the city continually offers new and fascinating perspectives. The book invites readers on an engaging journey through Prague and reveals the city’s full complexity in brilliant colour photographs and informative texts. Fold-out panoramic images provide spectacular views of selected highlights.
