Beautiful and easily accessible castle ruins. Great views from here and the other nearby viewing points. Part of a wonderful vitality tour that we went on a few years ago. A nice little rainbow was visible at the end today. Only a few pictures were taken with my smartphone, as is often the case with an “adult” camera. Whether I will publish the pictures taken with it depends entirely on whether I forget it after editing or not... ?

Small, fine castle ruins. Parking possible at the hiking car park below the ruins. Information board and seating available. The facility is maintained on a voluntary basis. Sour, neat.

Clementinum

The Clementinum is a historic complex of buildings in Prague. Until recently the complex hosted the National, University and Technical libraries, the City Library also being located nearby on Mariánské Náměstí. The Technical library and the Municipal library have moved to the Prague National Technical Library at Technická 6 since 2009. It is currently in use as the National Library of the Czech Republic.

Its history dates from the existence of a chapel dedicated to Saint Clement in the 11th century. A Dominican monastery was founded in the medieval period, which was transformed in 1556 to a Jesuit college. In 1622 the Jesuits transferred the library of Charles University to the Klementinum, and the college was merged with the University in 1654. The Jesuits remained until 1773, when the Klementinum was established as an observatory, library, and university by the Empress Maria Theresa of Austria.
