St. Vitus Cathedral, located within the Prague Castle complex, is a masterpiece of Gothic architecture and the spiritual heart of the Czech Republic. Its construction began in the 14th century and continued for nearly 600 years, resulting in a structure that is both grand and intricate. The cathedral’s soaring spires and elaborate façade dominate the skyline of Prague, creating a striking contrast with the surrounding medieval architecture. Inside, the cathedral is a treasure trove of art and history, with stunning stained glass windows, intricate frescoes, and the tombs of Bohemian kings and saints. St. Vitus Cathedral is not only a place of worship but also a symbol of Czech national identity, reflecting the country’s rich cultural heritage.
