Kolín, District town along Elbe River, Czech Republic

The town of Kolín extends across both banks of the Elbe River at an elevation of 220 meters above sea level in Central Bohemia.

The Gothic Church of Saint Bartholomew stands as a central religious monument, featuring architectural elements from the 13th century with 19th-century restorations.
