According to this
legend, a man called Dalibor from Kozojedy, a small town near Litoměřice, was
sentenced to death and imprisoned in this tower for giving shelter to some
rebellious peasants. While waiting for the fatal day, Dalibor would play his
violin and his music was so beautiful that all the people of Prague were moved
and enchanted and the local authorities didn't dare announce the date of the
execution. People knew that the generous Dalibor was dead when his violin fell
forever silent.
