B. It was, for a period, the capital of the Holy Roman Empire.

C. Prague Castle is the largest castle complex in the world and holds the nation's crown jewels in Saint Vitus Cathedral.

D. The original Judith’s Bridge was replaced by the Charles Bridge.

Explanation: The study materials state that Prague 'used to be the seat of Czech kings and for some time even the capital of the Holy Roman Empire,' confirming options 0 and 1. It also mentions that 'Charles Bridge was built on the site of the original Judith’s Bridge,' confirming option 3. While Prague Castle is described as the largest castle complex in the world and Saint Vitus Cathedral holds the nation's crown jewels, the statement that Prague Castle *holds* the crown jewels in Saint Vitus Cathedral is slightly inaccurate. The text says 'Also at Prague Castle is one of the country’s most important churches, Saint Vitus Cathedral, which holds the nation’s crown jewels,' implying the cathedral itself, which is within the castle complex, holds them, but not that the castle complex directly 'holds' them in the cathedral as one single entity. Therefore, option 2 is not precisely accurate as phrased in the context of the historical significance of the castle itself holding the jewels directly.

A. The Golden Line

B. Nerudova Street

C. The Dancing House
