Tabor, relatively unusual destination in the Czech Republic. It just never seems to come up among the usual cities people visit there when they want to get out of Prague, such as Karlovy Vary or Kutna Hora.

Tabor was the site of an interesting religious group, the Taborites, a radical wing of the Hussite movement. They apparently did not believe in personal property and piled their possessions into a big heap of communal property. As such, they could be considered 15th century forrunners to the Communists. Supposedly, they were also into dancing around naked.

Which may be one reason why the other Hussite factions turned on them and eventually slaughtered most of them in 1434.

Pity, really.
