St. Vitus Cathedral, the spiritual symbol of the Czech Republic, dominates the Prague skyline. Though commissioned in 1344 by Charles IV it took almost six centuries to complete, the final phase of construction lasting for more than fifty years was finished in 1929. St Vitus was the site of many coronations of Czech kings and queens, many of whom are interned in and under this magnificent edifice.
