Only as the mopping up operation begins has it become clear quite how much damage has been done. The town's best-known landmark, its medieval bridge, adorned with 18th century statues of saints, has taken a severe battering, and much of the town centre is recovering after coming under several metres of water. One of the many people who have been working as volunteers to help clear up the mess is Peter Moree, who teaches at Prague's Protestant Theological Faculty. Radio Prague's David Vaughan caught up with him and began by asking him about Pisek's ancient bridge. encr@radio.cz (Cesky Rozhlas)webmaster@radio.cz (CRo Webmaster) https://english.radio.cz/sites/default/files/images/pisek4.jpg?timestamp=1590246404 https://english.radio.cz/after-floods-town-pisek-8065222 Radio Prague International Radio Prague International radio.prague.int@gmail.com clean 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
