Description

Cathedral of Saints Cyril and Methodius Two very important figures in Czech history, Christian missionaries Cyril and Methodius brought the cyrillic alphabet on their travels and introduced it to many countries, among them the Czech Republic. This church is therefore one of religious and historical significance; in comparison with others it is quite young (built in 1854 – 1863). It was built in honour of the two saints for the anniversary of their arrival to the country and is as much a symbol of national pride as it is a religious sanctuary.
