Abstract: Richard Cobden belonged to a circle of the British intellectuals who admired German culture and philosophy. His interest grew further during his journey to the German states in the 1830s and 1840s. During his first journey in 1838 he visited for a short time the territory of Czech lands. To this short stay in Teplice and Prague the author dedicated this contribution in which he issues unpublished records from Cobden's diary. These reports contain a series of important findings and depict the everyday of the Czech lands in the end of the 19th century.
