| Description | The activities of papal nuncios at the imperial court in Prague at the turn of the 16th and 17th century substantially influenced the furtherance of Catholic interests in Central Europe. Under Nuncio Antonio Caetani (1607-1611) the situation was the same. He was intensely active particularly in the times when the Provincial Diets of Bohemia took place in 1609. By various interventions he endeavoured to prevent the granting of religious freedom to Protestants. However, he was not successful in this effort. |
