Mělník, Historic municipality in Central Bohemia, Czech Republic.
The town extends along the right bank of the Elbe River, featuring stone buildings, narrow streets, and a medieval underground network with ancient wells.
Mělník gained prominence in 1274 when King Ottokar II granted it town privileges, establishing it as a dowry town for Bohemian queens.
The Mělník wine region produces grapes in the northernmost vineyards of Europe, continuing traditions started in the 9th century by Bohemian rulers.
Regular trains connect Mělník to Prague, with the journey taking 45 minutes, while the town offers numerous wine tasting opportunities at local cellars.
The ossuary beneath the Cathedral of Saints Peter and Paul contains the remains of 15,000 people, arranged in geometric patterns on the walls.
