Zbraslav Chronicle

Reading from the Latin chronicle of the Zbraslav abbots Ota and Petr Žitavský from the beginning of the reign of King Václav II. to the accession of Charles IV. to the Czech throne. The Latin Chronicle of Zbraslav (Chronicon aulae regiae) was written between 1305 and 1339 in the Cistercian monastery in Zbraslav, which was founded in 1292 by the Czech king Wenceslaus II. The authors of this monumental work are two abbots from Zbraslav: Ota and Petr Zitavsky.
