MYSTERIOUS

ZNOJMO UNDERGROUND

Slepičí trh 2, Znojmo Phone: +420 515 221 342 podzemi@znojemskabeseda.cz www.znojemskabeseda.cz/podzemi

Znojmo Underground is one of the largest underground labyrinths in Central Europe, whose origins date back to the 14th century. There are no written records in the city chronicles about the exact date and purpose of their creation. The intricate underground network of tunnels still astonishes with ingeniously built ventilation shafts, flue gas ducts and wells. Since March 2009, the tour was expanded to include the exhibition „Mysterious Underground“, in which you will see an alchemical workshop, characters from urban legends, live rocks, bats, goblins, demonstrations of prison cells or skeletons in coffins. Head to the charming place near Prague, where a passionate hunter, Franz Ferdinand d‘Este, successor to the Austrian throne, lived. On guided tours you will see representative and guest rooms, a collection of weapons and hunting trophies, and even private rooms of Franz Ferdinand, which were created with the aim to maximize authenticity on the basis of archival materials, inventories of furniture and especially the imperial collection of photographs of photographer R. Bruner - Dvořák. A novelty since the last year has been a hunting route which connects the previous three tours and offers something extra - like a secret staircase in the tower.

ASTRONOMICAL CLOCK

Horní náměstí, 779 11, Olomouc Phone: +420 585 513 385

The Olomouc Astronomical Clock is situated in the northern facade of the Town Hall. It is set into a 14 m high pointed-arched recess. The present-day appearance of the Clock dates back to the 50s of the 20th Century and bears the traces of the former official aesthetic of socialist realism. The mosaic decoration of the Clock is made of various portrayals on the lateral sides of the recess depicting characteristic work for each month of the year. The author of the design, Karel Svolinský, introduced the folklore motif of the Ride of the Kings at the top of the recess. Figures representing the different working classes are depicted in the lower part of the mosaic decoration.
