Description --> ѕт ℓαωяєη¢є ¢нυя¢н ση ρєтяιη<--

The church consecrated to holy Laurentius lies on the Petřin in Prague. The Petrin is a 327-m-high hill in Prague where the Prague inhabitants recover traditionally. Numerous historical buildings and places of interest are on this. The hill which is covered almost completely with parks shows one of the preferential greenbelt recreation areas of the population of Prague.

The Saint Laurentius-Kirche (Kostel Sv. Vavrince), was established on the occasion of the massacre of a branch of the Přemyslidendynastie, and is consecrated to the Saint Laurentuis tortured in the 3rd century on a glowing rust then executed. The originally Romanesque, already in J. 1135 mentioned and 1735-70 baroque converted St. Laurentius churches, belonged in the past to the traditional places of pilgrimage of the inhabitants of Prague.

Excuse for my bad English!

Die dem heiligen Laurentius geweihte Kirche liegt auf dem Petřin in Prag. Der Petrin ist ein 327 m hoher Hügel in Prag, wo die Prager Einwohner sich traditionell erholen. Auf diesem befinden sich zahlreiche historische Gebäude und Sehenswürdigkeiten. Der Hügel, der fast vollständig mit Parkanlagen überzogen ist, stellt eines der bevorzugten Naherholungsgebiete der Bevölkerung von Prag dar.

Die St. Laurentius-Kirche (Kostel Sv. Vavrince), wurde anlässlich des Massakers an einem Zweig der Přemyslidendynastie errichtet, und ist dem im 3. Jahrhundert auf einem glühenden Rost gemarterten und dann exekutierten St. Laurentuis geweiht. Die ursprünglich romanische, bereits im J. 1135 erwähnte und 1735–70 barock umgebaute St.-Laurentius-Kirche, gehörte in der Vergangenheit zu den traditionellen Wallfahrtsorten der Bewohner Prags.

I consider myself lucky for living in this city and being able to wander it's streets and the hill of Petřín. Yet it is through YOUR photos how I realise again what beautiful city it is. The beauty of Prague is often forgot by it's townsfolk while they're rushing through it to follow their duties.
Thank you for remindig me!

Yes, I can understand your thoughts well! I live in Berlin, and sometimes do not see also any more how fascinating of this town is.
Everyday There - and way back to the work, obscures to me the look for the nice things! I think, this is normal,
because we consider with our thoughts in the everyday life.
If I visit Prague, I enjoy this time, as a vacation and this is the difference!
PS: You live in a wonderful town!
