Abstract

The article examines the early history of one of the largest historical cities of the Czech Republic – Pilsen. It is shown that the city went through two stages in its development: initially it was one of the most important regional towns of the medieval Bohemian state, and in 1295, in the immediate vicinity of the old settlement, a royal city was founded, endowed with self-government rights and other privileges on the basis of city law, which became the center of economic life and a point of concentration of the population. By the end of the XIV century, it became the third largest city in the Czech Republic and inherited the name Pilsen, leaving the old settlement with the name Old Pilsenets.
