Czech Republic's capital city, Prague, is home to the Old Town Bridge Tower, a Gothic tower known as Staromstská mosteck. It was constructed in the year 1357, during the reign of Emperor Charles IV. The building once served as the site of the Thirty Years War's decisive battle and displayed the skulls of twelve Protestant leaders who were beheaded in 1621.
There is a small video display in the tower's lowest room and a few artefacts unearthed during excavations and restorations. But the best is a narrow 138-step climb towards the dazzling views of the Old Town and the magnificent Vltava River. Prague is one of the most beautiful cities with well-preserved, gorgeous historic structures. Old Town Bridge Tower is one spot where one can experience the pure bliss of traditional medieval architecture.
