Charles IV

Anyone can follow in the footsteps of Charles IV
From the bank of the Vltava you step through a gate into medieval Prague. The illuminated story of Charles IV leads from the glowing Charles Bridge past the royal crown to the golden spires of the Gothic city — every stop a chapter of its own: king, builder, emperor. Thousands of LED lights and welded sculptures trace the coronation jewels, cathedral arches and legends of the imperial court.
