Pictures from a trip to the Monastery of St. Margaret in Prague Břevnov
On Saturday, 18th November, the Welcome Office organised an autumn walk to the Monastery of St. Adalbert and St. Margaret in Prague's Břevnov. The historical interpretation was once again provided by our excellent guide Ing. Martin Bělohradský. Our group visited the interior of St Margaret's Basilica, from where the participants descended to the Romanesque crypt with foundations dating back to the 11th century.
In the upper part of the monastery they admired the beautiful Theresian´s Hall and the interior of the Prelature.
We did not miss the Vojtěška spring, which refers to the legend of the foundation of the monastery by Prince Boleslav II and Bishop Vojtěch in 993 AD.
The walk ended in the garden of the monastery, from where there is a beautiful view of the surrounding part of Prague 6.
