July is Franz Kafka's birth month. He was born July 3rd, 1883. A native of Prague, he is ever-present as you walk through the city. Much of his formative years revolved around Old Town Square. He lived right by the astronomical clock, and he went to school inside the Kinský Palace which you can see to the left of the Stone Bell Tower right behind the Jan Hus monument.

If you are interesting in learning more, I just posted the first of a two-part series on my encounters with Kafka during my stay in Prague.
