RE: Prague/Czech Republic Friday Photo Challenge - share your photos from your visit to Czech Republic!
Marian pilgrimage site, Main entrance, Bílá hora (White Mountain), Prague
In 1620 a battle took place here. The Habsburg Emperor here suppressed the rebellion of Czech insurgents. According to legend, it was due to the miraculous picture of Our Lady of Victory.
Already in the 17th century, a complex of buildings around the church began to grow here, commemorating this event. To date, the complex has grown. There is an active Benedictine monastery.
