View of the Strahov Monastery (Strahovsky Klaster) in Hradcany. Founded in 1140 by an austere religious order, the Pre-monstratensians, Srahov rivalled the seat of the Czech sovereign in size. Destroyed by fire in 1258, it was rebuilt in a Gothic style, with later Baroque additions. It has a famous library which is over 800 years old and is still one of the finest in Bohemia. Srahov also escaped Joseph II's 1783 dissolution of the monasteries by changing its library into a research institute. It is now a working monastery and museum.
