Emperor Rudolph II ruled from Prague in the 16th (COMIC: The Broken Man) and 17th century (COMIC: Herald of Madness) According to the Eleventh Doctor, his court attracted all sorts of people. (COMIC: The Broken Man) Tycho Brahe was his court astronomer in 1601. (COMIC: Herald of Madness) During Rudolf II's reign, the Mavora attacked Prague. As a response, he gathered the greatest minds of the time to solve the problem. Rabbi Judah Loew ben Bezalel created a prison, The Sorrows of Prague, to contain the Mavora, and one of his courtiers, Gerhard Frankel defeated the rest by becoming the Golem of Prague.
