Prague is the capital and also the most populous city of the Czech Republic. With over 1.3 million inhabitants, Prague ranks thirteenth among the largest cities in the European Union. Prague, the capital, is one of the 14 regions of the Czech Republic and one of the richest regions in Europe.
Prague is the historical capital of Bohemia and was an important royal and imperial seat in the Holy Roman Empire, especially under the Přemyslids, Luxemburgers, and Habsburgs. Around 1230, the settlement, inhabited since early history, was elevated to a royal city and in the 14th century, under the reign of Charles IV, it became a political-cultural center in Europe. Charles University, the first university in Central Europe, was founded in Prague in 1348. The Conservatory and the Technical University are also among the oldest of their kind in Europe. For centuries, Prague was a city where Czech, German and Jewish cultures met.
The historic center of Prague has been recognized by UNESCO as one of the Czech Republic's 14 World Heritage Sites since 1992. Today, the "Golden City" displays a cohesive Gothic and Baroque townscape. Sights such as Prague Castle, Charles Bridge, the medieval Town Hall Clock, the Jewish cemetery, and the oldest active synagogue in the world make the city a popular tourist destination. With almost nine million tourists a year, Prague is one of the 25 most visited cities in the world.
