Topography of the creation of the Prague Astronomical Clock

Original language description

Based on the edition of Prague city books in V.V.Tomek’s series of books “Za 'klady stare 'ho m 'ıstopisu Prazˇske 'ho” [Foundations of the Old Prague Topography] [1] and verified with recent editions of the city books [2, 3] and manuscripts [4], the places of residence and work of the creators of the Prague astronomical clock were found and associated with the buildings, some of which have survived to the present day. In particular, the house of Mikula 'sˇ of Kadanˇ on Mu stek and the site of the forge in Zˇelezna ' street, where the astronomical clock was probably built, were lo- cated. These findings have not previously been published. Identified places and their attributes are represented as a GIS layer on the overlays of the current city plan and the plan of pre-Hussite Prague, which was an appendix to Tomek’s aforementioned series of books[5]. This work also serves as proof of the concept of the ”dig- ital historical geography” methods to research historical sources, collect and organize the geospatial-related infor- mation, and present the research results in an attractive form for both the scientific and lay public. The outcome of this work will be used in the project ”Medieval Settlements - the Core of European Cities. On the example of an interactive cartographic image of Prague”.
