It brought together exhibitions, concerts, festivals and celebrations tied to his life and era. Events unfolded across 24 sites linked to <strong>Charles IV<\/strong>, including <strong>Prague Castle<\/strong>, <strong>Charles Bridge<\/strong>, <strong>Vy\u0161ehrad<\/strong>, St Vitus Cathedral and the Carolinum. The project&#8217;s original website, run by the Prague Information Service, is long gone, so these days you&#8217;ll only find the details in a surviving brochure you can download, or in this archived overview.<\/div>\n<!-- \/lk-tldr -->\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>The Karlova Praha project was a large-scale series of cultural Prague events held to mark the 700th

Information Service, has since been shut down, so apart from here on our blog, you won&#8217;t find anything about the event anywhere else.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Throughout the whole of 2016, Prague hosted a wide range of fascinating exhibitions, concerts, festivals and celebrations, all sharing a common theme: <strong>the life and times of Charles IV<\/strong>, the Bohemian king and Holy Roman Emperor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!-- LKM_GYG_CARD start q=\"praha\" lang=\"en\" rendered=\"2026-08-31T21:10:19+00:00\" v=\"1\" -->\n<style id=\"lk-gyg-styles\">\n@import
