Kutná Hora Town Hall (Městská radnice / historic town hall)
Best time to visit
Late morning on weekdays, after local cathedral tours start, keeps the building quieter and photo-friendly. Late spring and early autumn offer mild weather and softer light for skyline shots.
Budget tips
Pay-per-entry with a modest ticket; combination tickets that include St. Barbara's Cathedral and the Italian Court offer better value and cut queueing time.

About
Hurtige fakta: Approach the facade and you'll notice an oddly theatrical silhouette, where mismatched towers and ornate stonework give the building a tilted, storybook charm photographers adore. Inside, curious details emerge: a richly paneled council chamber, faint mural traces along the stairways, and atmospheric nooks that hint at centuries of lively municipal life.
Højdepunkter: Step inside the façade and you’ll spot carved crossed miner’s hammers and a silver crown over the portal, a literal shout-out to the town’s 13th- to 15th-century silver boom that once made the place one of Europe’s richest cities. Local guides point out a soot-darkened council chamber where a 16th-century municipal bell still hangs above the hall, its clear ring once summoning citizens for emergency meetings and on quiet days carrying nearly 200 meters across the stone streets.
Insider tips
- Wear comfortable shoes, several flights of stairs and uneven stone floors are common.
- Climb the tower early for unobstructed views over the town and St. Barbara's Cathedral.
- Photograph the council chamber from the doorway to capture the ornate interior without using flash.
- Check seasonal opening hours and buy a combined ticket at the office to skip separate lines and save money.
