One day that explains the rest.
A century before Wittenberg, Master Jan Hus preached at Bethlehem Chapel that the church must return to the gospel. He was burned at Constance in 1415; his followers founded Tábor, the Utraquist church, and later the Moravian Brethren.
This tour walks that story through Old Town — starting where Hus preached, passing the square where the 27 Protestant lords were executed in 1621, and ending on the quieter slopes of Vyšehrad.
