The architect Josef Schulz (1840–1917) was sent on a study trip to the International Exposition of 1867 in Paris by the Prague Chamber of Commerce and Trade as an observer in the field of civil engineering. His trip developed into a weeks-long stay abroad, during which he visited not only the French capital, but also a number of German and Belgian cities and other destinations in France. Schulz’s journey can be reconstructed in great detail based on surviving archival material, which consists primarily of the architect’s travel diary, which he kept throughout his trip, correspondence with his parents, and some partial documents relating to the award of his travel scholarship and visits to museums in Paris. In addition to these documents, a number of Schulz’s study drawings were conserved, illustrating his areas of interest abroad. Although it traces Schulz’s entire study journey, the architect’s stay and activities in France remain the main focus of the article.
