In 1348, Charles IV was immersed in deep thoughts to decide upon a dignified place for tradesmen and craftsmen to co-habit. Charles IV had foresighted the ever-expanding horizons of Prague as the place prospered and flourished under the Holy Roman Empire. His excitement is reflected in the construction of the New Town (Nové Město) between Vyšehrad and the Old Town, as he personally designed the street layout as well monitored the construction progress.
