Adjacent to the church of St. James the Elder and the Italian yard on the street is Yakubskoy archbishopric, whose building looks strictly and concisely, as befits a place where gathered and discussed the pressing affairs of the higher ranks of the Church .  In addition, the Archbishopric Sunday schools in which from 1594 on 1599 years, were trained young people who want to continue their education in higher educational institutions such as universities and move further along the path of scientific .  The Holy Fathers, worked as a teacher, were educated people who has a large library that included works of many philosophers and scientists of the past .  The beliefs and theories of some of them the Church did not approve, but it does not mean that their books could not be found in a local library .  Portal Archbishopric building decorated with sayings of Cicero, carved in stone .  Their common sense is to ensure that the training of various kinds of sciences - is the key to a bright future . 

By the way, the portal is decorated with the coat of arms of the city of Kutna Hora, which has been preserved in perfect condition until our time. Artsy entrance to the Archbishopric - the only freedom in the design of the building. To work on the portal was invited stonecutter named Paul. He lived in Prague, and his skill was valued far beyond the capital of the Czech state.

If you walk from the Archbishopric to the Church of St. James, we can see laying on the pavement, which for more than three centuries. Probably, it is the oldest bridge in the city.
