Kadaň, Medieval town in Chomutov District, Czech Republic

The town extends along the Ohře River banks, with a central square featuring a Gothic Town Hall Tower and numerous Renaissance buildings.

Kadaň received royal status around 1260, developing from a market settlement established during the colonization period of the late 11th century.

The Emperor's Day festival commemorates Charles IV's visit through historical reenactments, traditional music performances, and local craft demonstrations.

Four train stations connect Kadaň to the Kadaň-Děčín railway line, providing transportation options for residents and travelers throughout the region.

The Franciscan Monastery contains rare medieval murals and an exceptional cellar vault system, making it a national cultural monument.
