St Agnes of Bohemia Convent

Yesterday I went out for the day with Isabella (girlfriend of 'The Tiger')from Romania. We visited the St Agnes of Bohemia Convent(founded by Agnes, sister of King Wenceslas I in 1234)and located near the Jewish Quarter. It is now used by the National Gallery to display, chronologically, a collection of medieval art from Bohemia and Central Europe. To say the collection is huge is an understatement. After nearly three hours I still had not seen the complete collection.
