Konopiste can be called a Empiric location because of those who lived there. Franz Ferdinand, archduke and crown prince to the Austrian empire. Konopiste held the future of the empire. It was where their hope lay and then that hope died. It was a place of refuge and hunting. Not balls or events. It was solitary.
Konopiste can be called Gothic because of the man who lived there. It is covered with animal trophies. Thousands upon thousands of them. It is a place of death and suffering. But each of those deaths meant something to the killer. Which is ironic seeing as the killer became the hunted. And his death is one that changed the world.
It is important because it was held the future Emporer of Austria. Yet it was situated in the Czech countryside. Which is interesting.
