Here's the Czech-language plaque on the Kostel sv. Martin.

This is the Dean Church of St. Martin, which from what I can roughly gather from the Czech plaque on it, can trace its ancestry back to 1294. If anybody could translate the plaque (in the next shot), then maybe we could learn a bit more. :-)

This is the town museum of Sedlcany, with the clock tower, which has a great deal of local exhibits, of course, but my best story from this place was that a guy there was collecting U.S. State quarters. He just wanted me to mail him some, but I told him, in broken Czech and German, that I lived in Prague. He seemed to think that I went to the U.S. practically every week, so he just asserted that I should pick some up the next time I'm home. Eventually, I got out of any deals, but I still would like to track him down sometime. The problem is that he doesn't use the internet....so....what could I do???

Here's another view of the museum and the old town square.

This building, while very old-looking, is actually the "Nove Radnice," or new town hall, and as it dates to 1903, it is a bit new by European standards.
