A freezing wind welcomes us in Plzen, the place where pilsener beer was born. And since it was almost noon, Lars and I headed to the first restaurant that we saw. We had a refreshing Gambrinus with our tasty meal.




Afterwards, we paid a visit to one of the city’s most important sights, the Gothic St. Bartholomew Cathedral. Founded in the 13th century, it has the highest church tower (102 meters) in the Czech Republic.















The square, where the cathedral stands is also worth a look.












If the weather had been better – especially less cold, Lars and I would have done a lot more exploring, because Plzen is really a charming town. To be revisited!
