Old Town Bridge Tower, Charles Bridge, Prague
P1070094.JPG
The Tower really looked like this at the time of its completion under the reign of Emperor Charles IV on this side.
The other side, unfortunately, was severely damaged by the Swedish guns in the Thirty Years' War.
Such an attraction. Whoever walked down the bridge never went under the tower in the center. There was a wire basket on the ceiling where the heads of the executed criminals were. Often there have been for several years here. Can you imagine what occasionally fell down?
