  • Prague is the capital of the Czech Republic and Pilsen is the capital of Czech beer. In this video, we will visit Pilsner Urquell brewery and the city of Pilsen. We'll teach you why Pilsen has a camel on its crest, why the city was so important for the nazis in the second world war and what are its main attractions today.

    The first time I went to Prague I drove from Dortmund in Germany and came past Pilsner. It looked very grey industrial and uninviting, but now watching the video it’s somewhere I’d like to visit, wow guy’s thanks for the video. Are you planning to do one in Brno or is that too far away🤔

    Pilsen is a strange city - it heavily industrialized, but since many of its suburbs used to be standalone towns and villages, it also has this rural character to it. Nature is very close thanks to the five river-valleys and some of the suburbs still feel like small countryside villages of their own with traditional “rural baroque” farmhouses.
    Additional sights to not miss:
    - Catacombs of Pilsen
    - Old Synagogue
    - Loos’ Interiors (functianalist architecture).
    - Patton Memorial and Museum
    To foreign visitors - Pilsen is easily reached either from Prague or from Munich by a direct train. The city is very walkable, has an excellent public transport and wide selection of hotels with affordable prices.

    I grew up in Argentina, and although the beer manufacturers there where from German origin, the type of beer produced was Pilsen. Which is strange enough but the oldest brewery was founded by a French-German immigrant from Alsace, France, Emilio Bieckert. Now I have to visit Plzen, tour the brewery and have a go to that unfiltered, freshly brewed beer (tried once at the Tecate brewery in Mexico and is delicious and extremely refreshing.)

    Very beautifull video guys. Thanks.
    There is a British documentary siries named War Factories, in it's 3rd season there is an episode devoted only to the Škoda factory in Pilsen and its WWII director Alebert Göring, yes, brother of Hermann Göring. And he's not the type a guy one would expect to be brother of a top nazzi.
    Also it would be good to mention for foreigners watching this channel today there are two Škoda companies the one in Mladá Boleslav, making cars, owned by VolksWagen group. And other in Pilsen, making trains, trams and heavy industrial equipment (like turbines for nuclear powerplants).

    • @xsc1000
      @xsc1000 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It was always two separate companies. In 1920s much bigger Škoda from Pilsen invested in Laurin & Klement automotive company in Mladá Boleslav.

    Dobré odpoledne!
    Nice to find this video, among your Prague guides.
    I have done a little bit of research, and it seems that Plzeň is MUCH cheaper to live in than Prague (and also Brno). I have already seen quite a bit of this big town, and it's picturesque. It has both the characters of a small city, with opportunities for many activities in and around the city. And there's immediate closeness to nature, as said in the video.
    I did not know the story about Škoda, though. Hmm. Well, it seems that few know about the German car brand Volkswagen, which of course means "the people's car", but that it was a gift to the people by none other than Hitler.
    Anyway, as mentioned by others here, I would not mind a more in-depth guide to Plzeň by this lovely channel. Although I'm sure other channels have been there too.
    Personally, I'm a bit more interested in what life is like in Czechia, rather than passing through as a tourist.

    I took the Pilsner Urquell tour in late June of 2022. According to our guide, in the tunnels where they serve the unfiltered variety there is a cave you can rent, by the hour, and drink unfiltered Pilsner Urquell for as long as it's rented. I need to know more about that option. 🤣

  • @thesayanmk
    @thesayanmk ปีที่แล้ว

    Ok, so.. I decided to ask under this video, because it's related.
    tl;dr - Why is it, that in Prague the beer offered in pubs and restaurants ratio is 1000: 2 : 00.1 for Pilsner Urquell : Staropramen : Bernard?
    I just came back from Prague. I haven't had water in 5 days and I feel great (I'm not a drunk-tard). I visited as much as I can from your recommended places and loved them. If you ever come to Bulgaria - I'd buy you a beer. Anyway - I really could not find beers like Bernard, Zatecky Hus, Starobrno and only twice stumbled upon a dark Kozel. I understand that the Urquell is the cradle of Czeck beer, I loved it, but there are literally just a few places that offer something different. Maybe you should make a video about the beer :)) Cheers!
