Pilsen
Plzeň is today the fourth largest city in the Czech Republic after Prague, Brno and Ostrava.It is a statutory and regional city (Plzeň-město district, Plzeňský kraj) and currently has about 164,180 inhabitants. Pilsen - the city which is probably most famous for its beer (Plzeňský Prazdroj and Gambrinus) and its engineering industry (mainly Škoda) has, however, also its history. And it has an undoubtedly fascinating history. The town was founded at the end of the 13th century (although this location was undoubtedly inhabited earlier and even in earlier periods) as a royal town then called Nová Plzeň. And why New Pilsen? Well, about 8 km from today's Pilsen we can find a smaller town called Starý Plzenec (where the famous Bohemia sekt is produced). However, this place used to be more important than today - after all, here we can find the Hůrka fortress, which served as the castle's administrative centre (there are still visible remains here, including the strongest preserved building in the Czech Republic - the Rotunda of St. Peter). However, with the accession of the first Czech hereditary kings, there was also a large-scale change in the system, including the administrative system - the old castle centres began to lose their influence, the domain they could control and, most importantly, from where they could and did take various levies, salaries and other goods or work. This, however, in a way, delayed the development of the state as such and, in truth, the monarch did not benefit enough from this system to pay him. The nobility also came to the fore, although it was not yet the nobility we know today. The influence of the Church was also growing. There was a large-scale foundation of towns and villages on quite different principles from those of the past. Thus Pilsen (today's Starý Plzenec) but especially its castle administrative centre was losing its power - the estates it administered were slowly and surely getting out of its jurisdiction. In 1266 Přemysl Otakar II gave the patronage right over all churches in the castle area and its administered surroundings to the monastery in Chotěšov. At the end of the 13th century, today's Pilsen was founded on a more convenient location. Until the 15th century we can find documents about Stara Plzen, then called Stary Plzenec.

Byť je to již přes šedesát let od ukončení 2. sv. války v některých městech se stále ještě dají vidět připomínky na ni nebo na dobu, kdy zde žili německy mluvící obyvatelé. V tomto případě jsem si všiml nedaleko plzeňského náměstí německo-česky psaného ukazatele k protileteckému krytu.
