Introduction

The Italian Court (Vlassky dvur) is a historically weighty landmark in Kutna Hora, a former royal mint and palace, the core witness to the city's role as the economic heart of the medieval Bohemian kingdom and source of silver wealth. Named for the Italian craftsmen invited to teach advanced minting. With Kutna Hora's rich silver, Bohemian kings minted the Prague groschen here - the Italian Court was the center of that minting. It also served as a royal palace for kings visiting the city. Today a museum: learn the minting history and craft (see a reconstructed workshop and live demos), visit the royal chapel and halls. A quiet, elegant courtyard. Exploring it looks back on the silver city's glory.
