The Prague Post reports on the exhibition ' Castles & Chateaux Rediscovered and Celebrated'

AnnaPavlickova DSC4685 590x800 December 2014 - The Prague Post reports on the exhibition ' Castles & Chateaux Rediscovered and Celebrated'

"The exhibition opens with the monumental medieval gates of Karlštejn Castle, though which the Holy Roman Emperor and Czech King Charles IV would have walked; they have been witness to many skirmishes throughout history and now are opened almost daily to hundreds of thousands of visitors arriving from various corners of the world.

Prior to their transfer to Prague Castle they were treated, reinforced and secured against damage; this restoration work was financed by a gift amounting to approximately 70,000 Kč (£2000) provided by the English charity, the Friends of Czech Heritage."
