St. Wenceslas CathedralChurches and St. Wenceslas Cathedral

As Moravia's capital until the 17th century, the most important religious buildings of the land were built in Olomouc. The 900 year old St. Wenceslas Cathedral (Dóm Svatého Václava) dominates the city skyline with the tallest spire in Moravia (second tallest in the country). The current and former archbishop's palaces are accessible to the public and there seems to be a church or chapel around every corner.
