Svoronos Square

The central square of the town, surrounded by colorful houses, with a statue column commemorating the victims of the Black Death. It has become a hub for the town's restaurants and shops.

St. Vitus Cathedral

This Gothic architecture, known as St. Vitus Cathedral in Prague, is one of the oldest, largest, and most luxurious churches in the town. Founded in the early 14th century, it has become the core area of faith for the local people.
