South Bohemia / České Budějovice

Přemysl Otakar II Square

One of the largest squares in the country, an almost perfect 133 by 137 metres, centred on the 18th-century Samson Fountain, the largest fountain in Czechia. Look for the 'Lost Rock' paving stone of local legend, and look up at the 72-metre Black Tower, the city's tallest.
