Description
Unconventional stories about Prague's house signs, forgotten crafts, and everyday life in ancient Prague. The depictions of animals, objects, and symbols on facades contributed to the unique character of local history. How is the Golden Ship connected to the robber Babinský? Does the Black Madonna guard the legendary treasure of the Templars? Where did Charles IV enjoy a good beer? And how did the wild times unfold at the Three Wild Men? You will find all this out in the new, expanded edition of the book "Guardians of Prague's Streets," which is published with original photographs by Jiří Chalupa.
