50 Map 1: The Prague Castle with the pagan cult place "Jizi", to which Marienkirche, St. George's Church and nunnery build and as the first stone building the St. Wenceslas Church. There close by in 993 the Slavníking Boitech-Adalbert built the Benedictine monastery St. Margaret-Breunow (1), into which twelve Italian monks move. a the high-lying church of Jezbus (2) with 2 courtyards and the mountain Ostro. Later Nezamysl (3), Kostelec in Bohemia (?), Raggad-Raigern (4), in Moravia, Braunau (5), Politz (6) near Braunau and Wahlstatt (7) are mentioned as propstei of Breunov. Later on in Opatovis (8) and Podlachius (9) there are cells of fields from Breunow at the founding of monasteries. The route from Raigern to Wahlstatt is divided over the Große Deschnaer Koppe, 1114 m high (10) and the Heusscheuer, 919 m high (11). Under Duke Wenceslas I, he decided to join the Empire and, since it was still old faith, had experienced the first church buildings and his church care from Regensburg: now both are reaching for Bohemia: the western culture with the monastery foundations and the imperial power, which needed a quick understanding with the valuable part-state. Just as the archbishop of Mainz was both prince and chancellor of the empire, so the ecclesiastical and secular understanding of the kingdom with Bohemia may have been on a line - as it may seem, on the line of the Einfeld Günther from Nieder-Alteich to Prague. Although this line has been established earlier, it has not yet been so emphasized as it was in its time. Heinrich II built the diocese of Bamberg in 1004. A line from Bamberg to Rinchnach cuts the line Nieder-Alteich-Prague perpendicularly, as well as the line Taus-Prachatitz. These lines in the south-east direction should be new as the Aus. 147
