Jan z Jenštejna
Life and career
Born in 1348 in Prague,
While on his castle, he fell from a newly built tower and miraculously managed to grab hold of something before falling to the ground.
He died in Rome on 17 June 1400,[1] and all his possessions, including his castle, passed to the Archbishops of Prague.
Artistic works
His musical works were compiled in the book Die Hymnen Johanns von Jenstein, Erzbischofs von Prag of Q. M. Dreves.[1] The book was published in German in 1886.[1] His literary activity was very rich and includes not only religious and philosophical works, but also poems.
