The capital of the Czech Republic is located in the central Bohemia region,on both banks of the Vltava River.
The settlement of Prague dates from the 9th century,when it was the site of several Bohemian castles.
The city started to grow in the 13th century with the establishment of German communities by King Wenceslas I of Bohemia.
The German colonists developed the city rapidly,establishing the Altstadt in 1232.Trading prospered and the Neustadt was built to the south-east a century later.
