Something unusual:
An old legend of the Lesser Town says about this house, which since ancient times has been called the U černého orla Residence, that the graceful bird of prey from the crest brings nothing but happiness and joy. According to the renowned Tomek's topography, in the 14th century there used to stand a palace of Mainz archbishop Ludwig. On one of his trips to the Prague royal court, warriors from his entourage found deep in the Bavarian woods an eagle with its talon stuck in a crevasse of a rock formation. They helped to free it and as recorded in the ancient chronicle whenever they traveled through border forests, a dark silhouette of this bird of prey always appeared above their heads as if to say thank you.
This legend, passed from one generation to another, reflected itself in the crest, a black eagle with its wings open majestically. Through the passing of time, its appearance changed into a two-headed imperial eagle with a crown, a lion on the chest and a sword and a scepter in its talons. |
