Hradec Kralove Attractions

|
Hradec Kralove is an administrative center and a working town but it is well equipped for the numerous tourists who pass through here. The town's main attraction is the mix of architectural styles that can be found here.
Hradec Kralove was a fully fortified city in the 18th Century. The walls were, for the most part, demolished but the division is still obvious. The historic city center contrasts sharply with the newer sections, which developed outside of the town walls. Hradec Kralove's old town (Stare Mesto) contains a mix of Gothic renaissance and baroque architecture. The New Town (Nove Mesto), on the opposite side of the river is home to some beautiful Art Nouveau buildings as well as bland Communist Era constructions.
