The Convent of St Agnes of Bohemia is one of the most important Gothic buildings in Prague, founded in the 1230s by the Premyslid princess St Agnes of Bohemia as the first convent of the Poor Clares north of the Alps. Today it forms part of the National Gallery Prague and houses the permanent exhibition Medieval Art in Bohemia and Central Europe 1200–1550. Visitors can explore the Oratory of St Agnes, the Shrine of the Saviour, and the Church of St Francis, where the remains of King Wenceslas I are buried.
