Abstract

Study brings an attempt to a closer identification of Michael Parler, the brother of famous Peter, who led the construction of Prague cathedral. Michael is documented as a builder during the construction of Zlatá Koruna Abbey.

The part of the monastery, which was probably his work, relates to contemporaneous buildings in Nuremberg. The same Michael Parler probably worked towards the close of his life in Strasbourg.
