Blatná Castle history
The castle and grounds at Blatna are undoubtedly one of the most important monuments of their type in this country today from an architectural and historical standpoint. The castle's long history, distinct architectural style in a rare surviving environment of parks and water, and current condition make it a jewel among castle complexes. Along with Švihov and Červena Lhota, Blatna is one of the best-preserved water castles in the Czech Republic. Its architectural and historical development made this chateau a striking example of the changing artistic styles over the centuries. Since it was held mainly by members of the high nobility over the years, Blatna was one of the places where Central Europe's history was made and shaped.
Archeological findings indicate that the knoll in the middle of the marshes (blata – from where Blatna's name derives) was settled in prehistoric times. Slavs began to appear in the Blatna area in the late 7th and early 8th centuries. Permanent Slavic settlement, however, only occurred in the late 10th century.
The settlement at Blatna was well positioned because of an essential old trade route connecting Sušice and Horažďovice, which crossed the river Lomnice at this spot. Blatna's first historical record was in 1235 when the fortress was first mentioned as the seat of Vyšemír, a member of the lesser nobility (coat of arms: arrow), perhaps a poor relation of the Bavor of Strakonice family. Blatna was mentioned again in 1241 with a certain Předosta of Blatna, this time clearly indicating a small castle protected by water, made up of the castle itself and a private Romanesque chapel, quite complex from a structural point of view, which must have been built somewhere between the late 12th century and 1225. Despite this, however, the oldest period of the castle's history is sometimes linked – as is the case for other castles in this region – with the Knights Templar and the obligatory accompanying legends.
Wenzel Karl and his heirs held on to Blatna until today, except for the forced interruption during the Communist period. Franz (František) Hildprandt oversaw an extensive adaptation of the chateau to create a representative seat providing comfortable living quarters. Later, Robert Hildprandt oversaw Romantic-style Neo-Gothic renovations in 1850 through 1856, designed by architect Bernard Grüber of Munich, giving the building more or less its current look.
In the late 1940s, the National Heritage Commission took over the chateau and later confiscated from the Hildprandts after the Communist takeover. Friedrich (Bedřich) Hildprandt, his wife Cornelia, and their daughters were allowed to legally emigrate to Ethiopia after 1958, thanks to the family's ties to Emperor Haile Selassie I. The relics of the family's time in Ethiopia are a compelling addition to the chateau exhibition. After 1989, the estate returned to the hands of the Hildprandts after its restitution to Cornelia, the wife of Friedrich Hildprandt (who died in 1981 in Germany), and their daughters Josefina and Jana. The current owners are working intensively restoring the chateau and opening it to visitors.


History of the park
The 42-hectare castle park is one of the most beautiful locations in the region. It is open to the public year-round – in fact, people have been visiting it since the times of Ferdinand Hildprandt.
Franz (František) Hildprandt had the front part of the original game park transformed into an English park. The rear part was kept in its original form with the sejpy (remains of gold panning in times past) surrounded by large trees.
The park has streams, bridges, paths, and beautiful alleyways. When a new road was built in 1810, Baron Franz also had a man-made hill built in the southwest corner of the park with rocks and caves connected by stone tunnels. During the Napoleonic Wars, this project gave work and wages to the residents of Blatna. The park also once held an orangery, theater, Swiss house, lodge, and shooting range, but these no longer exist.
Today, the only building standing in the park is the Empire-style house where the Hildprandt family now resides.
Another popular attraction in the castle park is the large herd of fallow deer, which graze freely, and a muster of peacocks. Numerous ancient oak trees also grow on the grounds.

DOMAŽLICE - Czech Republic

Domažlice (německy Taus) jsou okresní město v Plzeňském kraji a tradiční centrum regionu Chodsko. Je vzdáleno 53 km jihozápadně od Plzně a 14 km severovýchodně od HP Folmava/Furth im Wald. Historicky cenné městské centrum je městskou památkovou rezervací. Nejstarší psané zmínky o Domažlicích se datují ke konci 10. století, kdy zde existovala osada, které později Přemysl Otakar II. udělil městská práva. Roku 1231 bylo město obehnáno hradbami, aby tak bylo zabezpečeno před vpády z Bavorska. V 60. letech 13. století byly Domažlice povýšeny na královské město a místní hrad se stal sídlem purkrabího, pod jehož pravomoc náležely i svobodné chodské vsi. Roku 1373 byly předměstí a okolní vsi vypáleny bavorskými vojsky.
V období husitských válek se město přidalo na stranu Táboritů. V srpnu roku 1431 bylo obléháno vojsky čtvrté křížové výpravy v čele s markrabětem Fridrichem Braniborským a kardinálem Juliánem Cesarinim, jež 14. srpna mezi Domažlicemi a městečkem Kdyně porazily spojené husitské svazy pod velením Prokopa Holého (bitva u Domažlic). V období pozdní gotiky byl vylepšen městský obranný systém, přičemž došlo k výstavbě kruhové hlásky na náměstí, jež dodnes tvoří klasickou dominantu Domažlic. Z roku 1592 pak pochází nejstarší vyobrazení města, podle něhož se dají vysledovat proměny centrální zástavby.
V 15. a 16. století vládlo městu několik rodů. Počátkem 17. století se Domažlice i přilehlé obce připojily ke stavovskému povstání, na které po Bílé hoře navázalo povstání Chodů. V centru města se nachází historické jádro s měšťanskými domy ze 14. až 16. století, dnes jsou součástí městské památkové rezervace. Arciděkanský kostel Narození Panny Marie -- původně raně gotický z 2. pol. 13. století. V 15. století zaklenut a změněn v trojlodí, vyhořel r. 1747, v letech 1751 -- 1756 barokně přestavěn. (KDČB) Ke kostelu přiléhá městská věž, která tvoří dominantu náměstí Míru i celých Domažlic.
Dolní brána - asi nejznámější domažlická brána. Najdeme ji na dolním konci náměstí Míru. Pochází z 60. let 13. století.Každý rok v srpnu se v Domažlicích konají známé Chodské slavnosti. Jejich tradice byla zahájena bezprostředně po skončení II. světové války - pouť na Vavřinec se opět konala 12. srpna 1945. Církevní význam této akce byl za komunismu potlačován, ale folklorní ráz původní poutě se zachoval. Oslavy se ale přesunuly od kostela sv. Vavřince do města. Po revoluci jsou slavnosti opět spojovány s Vavřineckou poutí, jsou ale zejména nejvýznamnější kulturní akcí na Domažlicku.

Domažlice was first recorded as a town in 1231. Přemysl Otakar II of Bohemia ordered the city to be fortified for the purpose of protecting the border with Bavaria. It would remain fortified from 1262 to 1265. Border guards were recruited from the Chodové (Slavic free farmers) who settled in the vicinity of Domažlice.

The city was mortgaged to Bavaria in 1331, lasting until 1419 (with some interruptions). Under Hussite rule, German citizens were expelled from the city, and since then, the population has been predominantly Czech. In 1431, Prokop the Bald defeated the crusaders of the Holy Roman Empire near Domažlice. The 15th and 16th century saw Domažlice change hands frequently, but its importance diminished following the end of the Thirty Years' War. It was not until 1770 that it recovered, largely due to innovations in the textile industry. Until 1918 the town was part of the Austrian monarchy, finding itself on the Austrian side of the Austro-Hungarian internal frontier following the 1867 Ausgleich (compromise). It was the district capital of the district with the same name, being one of the 94 Bezirkshauptmannschaften (district capitals) in Bohemia.[1]

Within the context of the Czech National Revival, Domažlice became a central place during the 19th century. At the time, it was the most western ethnic Czech town, very close to the border with the Kingdom of Bavaria. In the city, a pilgrimage took place on August 13, 1939, which developed into a large Czech protest demonstration against the German occupation and control of the ethnic Czech Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia.The German population was expelled in 1945 according to the Potsdam Agreement.
In 2005 a mass grave was discovered on the outskirts of the town, holding 54 Germans, mainly members of the local SA, executed by the Czech resistance after the end of the war, around May 8, 1945.

Virtual Walking Tour of Prague's Center: Na Příkopě and Národní Streets ???????? Сzech Republic 4k HDR

Virtual Walking Tour of Prague's Central District, exploring Na Příkopě and Národní Streets on a Foggy Day

Na příkopě (On the moat), informally also Na Příkopě, Na Příkopech or Příkopy, is a street in the center of Prague, Czech Republic, connecting Wenceslas Square with the Republic Square. It separates the Old Town from the New Town. It is a place of representative buildings, including the headquarters of the Czech National Bank, old palaces, and luxurious shops.
Na Příkopě street leads to the site of a former 10-meter-wide and 8-meter-deep moat from 1234, which led along the medieval walls of the Old Town. Water flowed directly from the Vltava river, and when the moat was filled, the Old Town formed a closed island. The moat was covered in 1760. After coating, chestnut trees were planted here, and the street was named Ve starých alejích (In old alleys). From 1845-to 70, the street was named Kolowratská třída, and since 1871 bears the name Na Příkopě. Because it was one of the few vast streets in Prague, it soon became a traffic artery. Since 1875, the first line of the Prague horse-drawn tram has been led here, electrified since 1899. In 1919, Můstek became the first intersection in Prague controlled by a traffic policeman. In 1927, then the second intersection with the light signaling[4] (the first being Hybernská-Dlážděná-Havlíčkova intersection). In the 1960s, traffic jams were getting worse. However, in 1978 the metro station was opened at Můstek, and Line B followed the street from 1985 for almost its entire length to the Republic Square. A nearly century-old tram line was canceled in 1985, and the bustling urban street turned into a pedestrian zone. On the road appeared many new stores, and it became an important business center of the Prague promenade.


Národní, formerly Národní třída, is one of the important avenues in Prague, Czech Republic. It is placed on the boundary of New Town and Old Town, in the southwest direction from the city's center. This avenue connects the Legion Bridge bridge with Jungmannovo náměstí. In medieval times, there were fortification walls. On Friday, 17 November 1989, riot police violently suppressed a peaceful student demonstration, which is thought of as the initiation of the Velvet Revolution. Národní třída continued to be an eventful locale during the rest of the revolution.

České Dráhy (ČD) or Czech Railways is the main railway operator in the Czech Republic. In 2010 its consolidated revenues reached CZK 41.0 billion (€1.6bn, $2.1bn). Revenues from passenger transport amounted to CZK 18.7 billion (65% transfer payments from the government, 25% intra-state transport, 10% international transport), revenues from freight transport operated by subsidiary ČD Cargo amounted to CZK 11.8 billion, revenues from traffic control invoiced to state-owned railway infrastructure operator SŽDC amounted to CZK 5.2 billion. With thirty-eight thousand employees ČD Group is the largest Czech company by the number of employees.

The company was established in 1993, after the dissolution of Czechoslovakia as a successor of the Czechoslovak State Railways. It is a member of the International Railway Union (UIC Country Code for Czech Republic is 54), Community of European Railways and the Organization for Railways Cooperation (Asia and Europe).

Until 1 July 2008, České dráhy was the biggest employer in the Czech Republic. After experiencing regular losses and requiring government subsidies, the railway reported its first ever profit in 2007 although it receives government subsidies. Attempts to make it more efficient are currently ongoing and a recent plan to move passenger transport to an independent subsidiary was approved by the Czech government in January 2008.

ČD operates trains; fixed infrastructure (such as tracks) is managed by SŽDC. In December 2010, the Czech government proposed bringing SŽDC and ČD together in a single holding company. The government has also changed the subsidies available to ČD and SŽDC.

ČD Cargo, the cargo subsidiary, mainly transports raw materials, intermediate goods and containers. As of 2009, it is ranked in the top five largest railway cargo operators in Europe.
