Numerous historical monuments testify to the old and rich history. Precious historical buildings, as imposing Gothic or Baroque churches and old noble houses, can be seen almost in all towns, especially in Kutná Hora. History and pre-history have left innumerable traces in the district of Central Bohemia. According to an old Czech legend, the history of the Czech nation joined with the arrival of the forefather Čech should have begun in this region on the mountain Říp. Also the beginnings of the own Czech state from 9th and 10th century could be traced here. The central location of this region in the heart of Europe and its relations to the other countries of the European continent formed its face. Since pre-historical period, Central Bohemia was the main intersection of important commercial trails that influenced the settlement and development of the whole region. It was necessary to construct fortification systems there to protect the commercial trails - and so many strongholds and fortified towns were built. It is worth to mention that in the Central Bohemia have remained approx. 400 strongholds, citadels and castles, which once used to be the residences of the Czech kings and noble families.
