St. Barbara's Church, Kutná Hora

Saint Barbara's Church is a Roman Catholic Church in Kutná Hora (Bohemia) in the style of a cathedral, and is sometimes referred to as the Cathedral of St Barbara. It is one of the most famous Gothic churches in central Europe and it is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. St Barbara is the patron saint of miners (among others), which was highly appropriate for a town whose wealth was based entirely upon its silver mines. It is located outside the Old Town district, behind the Jesuit College. The area was formerly outside of the town.
