School

The school that I am a part of is named Charles University and it was set up by the Holy Roman Emperor Charles IV in 1348. Yes, 1348. It has history that predates our country by several hundred years. It is an urban campus consisting of dozens of individual buildings all across the city. I’d be walking down the street and look up to discover a new Charles building. They are everywhere. My favorite feature of these buildings is their architecture. Since there are so many buildings they range in styles throughout the centuries. There are school buildings that are from Renaissance, Baroque, Neo-Classicism, Functionalism, and Soviet designed buildings. This fascinates me coming from a school designed in the 1970s.
