Hi friends in Steemit,

Today I want to show you a photo I made in the city I live in. It is a beautiful city of Prague.
I fell in love with this building as soon as I saw it. So let's talk about this beauty.

Story:

When a great emperor died in 1378 and the Czech King Charles IV died, the dying from the tower of the cathedral began to ring itself and all the Czech bells were gradually joined by him. Karel heard it, and before death he cried out, "Behold, my children, the Lord God is calling me, be with you for ever!"

is the most important Czech Roman Catholic church and the dominant of Prague Castle. The southern tower of the cathedral is the third highest church tower in the Czech Republic with a height of 96.6 m.

Since the tenth century, the St. Vitus Church has been the seat of the Bishop of the Prague Diocese, and in 1344 it was promoted to the Archdiocese. On this occasion, the construction of a three-nave Gothic cathedral with three towers was started, interrupted by the Hussite wars.
