Zlatá koruna Monastery
Zlatá koruna Monastery, Cistercian monastery in Zlatá Koruna, Czech Republic
The monastery complex stands on a promontory surrounded on three sides by the Vltava River, featuring Gothic architecture and Baroque modifications.
King Ottokar II of Bohemia established the monastery in 1263, naming it after a relic from the Crown of Thorns received from French King Louis IX.
The monastery contains educational paintings from the Golden Crown School, established by the last abbot for children of local subjects.
The monastery offers guided tours through religious spaces, including the abbots chapel, Angel Guards Chapel, gardens, cloisters, and the largest church in South Bohemia.
The monastery houses a Baroque pharmacy in former kitchen spaces, displaying original medical equipment and pharmaceutical containers from the 18th century.
