It was on an important trade route from Prague to Bavaria in Germany but also gained importance as an important educational center. Members of the Jesuit order came to Klatovy during the Thirty Years’ War in the 17th Century. And they left more than just a few beautiful baroque buildings. One of their legacies is a crypt with dozens of mummified bodies of people who died in the 17th and 18th centuries.   encr@radio.cz (Cesky Rozhlas)webmaster@radio.cz (CRo Webmaster) https://english.radio.cz/sites/default/files/images/bbaf801270a8636f1c0632890e18fd71.jpg?timestamp=1719424517 https://english.radio.cz/klatovy-walking-among-mummies-8692238 Radio Prague International Radio Prague International radio.prague.int@gmail.com clean 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
