The Stone House is one of the most valuable Gothic monuments in Bohemia. It is valued not only for its age but mainly because it is a testimony to how people lived and thought in its day.
The house was built between 1485 and 1499 for townsman Prokop Kroupa, who was raised to a noble rank in 1499, as indicated by the knights on the gable. The house is easily identified by a high triangle-shaped gable with Gothic windows, rich decorated sculptures, Gothic pinnacles and a double gate. It is part of the historic core of the city, which is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
