$About thirty miles southeast of Prague sits the town of Konopiste. Built by the Haps-burgs, Konopiste was the Club Med of its time. Here emperors and archdukes relaxed amidst the well-stocked hunting grounds surrounding the palace. This bridge linked the palace to the lush grounds, which includes tree-lined trails and a lake.\nWhile visiting, our Czech friends told us a local fable of how hunting-fanatic Archduke Franz Ferdinand took over the palace in 1887 and lived there for nearly 30 years until the fateful day when he and wife Sophie became the prey of the animals that lived in the forest. However, as history buffs will attest, Franz and Sophie were actually assassinated on a formal visit to Sarajevo – an event that sparked World War I.$
