Czech Republic

We are now in the Second Courtyard looking at the building that currently houses the old Treasury of St Vitas Cathedral. In front is the baroque-styled Kohl's Fountain, sometimes called the lions fountain, that was built in 1686. Nearby is an octagonal 14m well, covered with an unusual metal hood, that dates back to the late 1600s or early 1700s. It was used as a water source until 1905.
