Utajené hrady a zámky I. aneb Prahou po stopách panských sídel – Dvořák Otomar (2019)

Experienced writers and travelers Otomar Dvořák and Josef Pepson Snětivý invite you once again on exploratory journeys. After the success of the first edition of the book Hidden Castles and Chateaux I., which is practically sold out, they bring you the second, updated edition. They have once again ventured into the streets, parks, squares, and hidden corners of Prague, as much has changed in just two years! Sometimes for the better, sometimes for the worse – and that is why it is high time for an expedition to some of these sites: on the pages of this publication, and then perhaps on foot. The authors present an updated text about nearly eighty fortresses, castles, commanderies, chateaux, and small castles. Unfortunately, they could only describe a few, and the rest is up to your imagination, as these are residences that have left no tangible remains. However, they repeatedly visited, explored, and photographed the existing ones, searched literature and archives, asked locals... and occasionally found unexpected connections, uncovered slight remnants, or stood in awe before the unassuming charm of places they had overlooked for years. They believe you will once again immerse yourself in the fascinating stories of Prague's monuments. The reward will be unforgettable moments in locations you never thought to visit...
