St. Vitus Cathedral in Prague






The cathedrals in Prague were like nothing I've ever seen, especially this one, St. Vitus, which is actually in the center of the Castle complex. Here is a small sampling of the grand architecture and artistry we saw, both inside and outside. Here is just one of about 30 or more enormous stained glass windows along the sides of the cathedral. Each one beautifully depicts a different part of the story of Christ. You also see the magnificent organ, which took up the entire back of the building. There are also many, many sculptures, which I won't show you now. You'll just have to go see for yourself.
