Lesser Town Bridge Towers - Prague Czech Republic #62695653
Description
In 1464 King George of Podebrady ordered the construction of a new, taller tower next to the Judith Tower. This late Gothic tower, known as the Lesser Town Bridge Tower, was built on the remains of an old Romanesque tower. Its design was modeled on Peter Parlers Old Town Bridge Tower at the other end of the Charles Bridge. The two towers are connected by a crenellated gate. The gate was built in 1411 during the reign of Wenceslas IV, even before the second tower was built.
