Visit to World Heritage site
Today was another early start. We drove 36 kms to Kutna Hora.
We visited three sites the Cemetary chapel and Ossuary. This lead to some interesting discussions and while it was a strange place the feeling of respect and honouring people - it gave a specially strong impression of the impact of the plague and various wars. We then visited the Cathedal of Saint Barabora. The girls sang two songs which were appreciated by an English tour group as well as others. After lunch we went to the Italian Court. This is a fascinatimg building which has been a mint, a part residence for the king, a
hospital during the Napoleonic wars and a girls school. At 3.30 we went to the church of st. John of Nepomuk first to practise and then to give a 1 hour concert. The choir was very well received - they were clapped back for another song.
