On the orientation of Czech cities founded during the 13th century
Original language description
During the 13th century the Czech state became a major power, significantly influencing the political situation in Central Europe. Alongside with the increasing positions of power of the Czech state, important changes also occurred in the interior of the country. Remarkable economic development led to a process of urbanization throughout the country's territory. Concurrently in the wider European region similar political, social and economic changes favored analogous developments, including a new intellectual movement reviving the ancient Greek natural philosophy, including astronomy. It is certain that this fact did not leave unaffected the architectural thought and creativity of the era. The present paper studies the orientation of fifteen of these new Czech towns, developed in the late 13th century, for a possible astronomical connection.
