Fatti rapidi: Wandering through the vaulted rooms you can still picture minting halls where coin dies once struck regal currency, the atmosphere almost audible with imagined clinks. Guided tours reveal that at its peak the mint produced millions of coins, and the unexpected blend of Gothic and Renaissance details delights many visitors.
Punti salienti: Step into the vault where, beginning under King Wenceslaus II in the early 1300s, skilled moneyers hammered out the famous groschen by hand, the mint producing millions of those silver coins that financed royal wars and long-distance trade. A low stone stair still leads down to the original minting pit, where you can feel worn grooves in the flagstones and almost hear bellows and hammers as coiners worked and inspectors checked each piece for weight and edge marks.
Consigli da insider
- Wear sturdy shoes for cobbled streets and uneven museum floors.
- Book the earliest time slot available to avoid midday tour groups.
- Focus photos on the vaulted mint hall and the original minting equipment for best shots.
- Skip the longest guided routes if short on time and concentrate on the mint hall and coin exhibits.
