The Southern Corridor of bishopric district was uncovered in early 1920s as the first Romanesque remains in the 3rd Courtyard of the Prague Castle. Based on historical context it likely originates from 11th - 12th century. To benchmark this estimate, radiocarbon dating of charcoals found in its mortars was performed. The results support the previous age estimate and suggest an ongoing building activity on site such as raising cascade walls at least till 14th - 16th century.
