What is it?
This enchanting Gothic gateway looming over Charles Bridge was reserved for kings to pass under during their coronations over the centuries. The Tower and Charles Bridge have been standing since the 14th century, with the bridge being named after Emperor Charles IV. Some of the statues are actually copies of the originals, though! They can be found at the National Museum and Vyšehrad.
