Online virtual tour of Vyšehrad Cemetery released

The Prague cemeteries administration has released a web application allowing visitors a virtual tour of the Vyšehrad Cemetery. The application at www.hrbitovy.cz offers information and photographs for all of the nearly 1300 graves in the cemetery and will include more information on the Cezch personages laid to rest there. The graveyard on the historic hill of Vyšehrad is a sort of pantheon of important Czechs, among them composer Antonín Dvořák, Karel Čapek, Jan Neruda, and Božena Němcová.
