Beyond Prague’s Borders: Unravel the Timeless Tapestry of Kutná Hora

In Kingdom Come: Deliverance II, we already had the opportunity to partially walk through the digital Kutná Hora as part of the preview, and we also saw some parts of the map from the videos published so far, but not yet in all its glory. That changed with the latest issue of PC Gamer magazine, which was dedicated to the game and also printed the map of Kutná Hora, which owners of collector’s editions will receive in cloth form. However, Tobias Stolz-Zwilling, PR manager of the Warhorse studio, did not hesitate and not only responded to the spreading image by publishing the map in full quality, but directly compared it to the largest location from the first part, which were Rataj. And here it is clearly shown that compared to Kutná Hora, Rataje was basically just a kind of long street that was called a town.

Kutná Hora in itself is just one of the vast locations, while it and its surroundings are also complemented by another large map in the form of Troseck, as we already know from before. At first glance, it’s clear that the developers and artists once again put a lot of care into the map, as it is full of details, motifs and scenes from medieval iconography. In the center of the map is, of course, the depiction of the city itself, surrounded by the river Vrchlice at the bottom, while on the left you can directly see the erected church of St. Barbara. In the surroundings, there are fields together with a representation of the work on them and other duties.

The lower part of the map is decorated with a scene from mines and silver processing, which were absolutely essential for the city at the time, while Saint Barbara herself is depicted here, who is, among other things, the patron saint of miners. The left and right sides are decorated with the support system of the temple, which on the left is still in the construction stage, while on the right it is already decorated with stonework and sculpture with lilies, crabs and violets or figures. Overall, the visual design of the map does not stray too far from the concept of number one, it is just a bit more luxurious, which is what the motifs themselves encourage. In any case, the map also offers a number of other interesting scenes and beautiful illustrations, so of course I highly recommend exploring it on your own, bit by bit.
