H
A
A) Prague Castle and St. Vitas Cathedral
– the largest medieval castle in the world –
jewel of the Czech capital, enchanting large
Cathedral, castle exhibition of Czech history,
collection of Bohemian art, Prague Castle
Gallery, Toy Museum, Powder Tower and
Golden Lane are some of the places to see.
Most monuments are open daily Apr-Oct
9am-5pm, and Nov-Mar 9am-4pm. Entrance
fees are required for a few selected areas.
Allow at least ½ day.
B
B) Old Town Sq. and Astronomical Clock
– just in the heart of the Old Town surrounded
by charming baroque, gothic and rococo
architecture, Old Town Sq. is a great place to
hang around, have a lunch at one of many of its
cafes, hire a horse or buggy, browse markets
stalls or just watch the Astronomical clock. Don’t
miss the Church of Our Lady Before Týn, the
rococo Kinsky Palace, the medieval House at
the Stone Bell and baroque St. Nicholas
Church.
C
C) Charles Bridge – dating back to 1357 this
bridge was built to replace Judith’s Bridge from
the 12th century. There are thirty sculptures that
decorate the bridge dated mainly from the
baroque period. Charles Bridge is one of the
most popular tourist spots - vibrant day or night,
scattered with vendors and entertainers. Early
morning is the best time to experience a less
crowded walk, although a romantic evening
walk through the impressively lit streets of
Prague by night is nice too.
D
E
D) Jewish Quarter Josefov – oldest Jewish
settlement in Europe named after emperor
Josef II. Here are two gures synonymous with
this part of the city, Franz Kafka and the
mystical humunculus Golem created by Rabi
Löw.
The
Jewish
cemetery,
Old-new
Synagogue, Klausen Synagogue and the
Pinkas Synagogue are denitely worthwhile
sights. Be prepared for entrance admission to
most of the sights ranging from 200 CZK or just
buy 480 CZK for a ticket encompassing all the
sights.
E) Municipal House – Prague‘s most prominent
Art Nouveau building with interior partially
designed by Alphons Mucha, built between
1905 and 1912. Visit the biggest concert hall in
town (Smetanova Hall) and also don’t miss
coffee at the fabulous Municipal House
Kavárna. Next to the Municipal House is
Powder Gate - one of the 13 original fortied
gates to Old Town. There is also a small
exhibition about the tower and it is open for
great views of the city.
F) Petřín Hill and Funicular – escape to the
green peaceful grounds of Petrin, visit the Petrin
Observation Tower, Observatory or just enjoy
great views of the city. Funicular Railway to
Petrin Hill is just opposite to tram stop Ujezd
(trams 12, 22, 23) in Lesser Town. Railway runs
in 10-15 min. intervals. From Petrin Hill you can
take a walk to the Strahov Monastery. The
monastery area includes the unique Strahov
Library decorated with Baroque ceiling frescos.
F
G
G) Vyšehrad – once it was a forbidding fortress
and now it is a popular place for locals during
weekends. Visit the city’s oldest Romanesque
rotunda of St. Martin, the Church of St. Peter &
Paul, enjoy a peaceful walk in the gardens. It is
easily and quickly reachable from the centre by
metro line ‚C‘ to station ‚Vyšehrad‘ (two stations
from the National Museum). From there it is
about a 10-minute walk to Vyšehrad's main
gate. The tour of the complex takes about 2 or 3
hours.
H
H) Wenceslas Square – is a hustle and bustle
of commerce, tourist shops, restaurants,
casinos, hotels, and countless shops. It really
comes alive after dark, when its restaurants,
cinemas and night clubs attract the tourist
crowds. At the northern end of the square you
can nd the neo-Renaissance National Museum
and St. Wenceslas Monument. Another
signicant building is Koruna palác - a covered
shopping arcade with a stunning glass dome
dating from 1911.
I
I) Church our Our Lady Before Týn
– fascinating interior with gothic touches from
the 14th century. The interior‘s Gothic,
Renaissance and Baroque features include
sculptures of Calvary, a pewter font and a 15th century Gothic pulpit. The Danish astronomer
Tycho Brahe is buried in a marble tomb here.
The cathedral is an Old Town Square landmark
with distinctive twin spires that area reassuring
sight to many tourists after losing their bearings
in the narrow surrounding byways.
J
J) The Loreta – is a pilgrimage site established
by B. B. Katherina von Lobkwicz in 1626 where
you can see replica of Santa Casa. The Santa
Casa is an over-decorated baroque cube, which
has fragmentary frescoes inside, and houses
the wonder-working statue of Our Lady of
Loreto. The Loreta treasury has a famed
collection of vestments and other religious
objects. In the south-western corner is the
Chapel of Our Lady of Sorrows, which has a
sculpture of a crucied bearded woman.
K
K) St. Nicholas Church – Baroque church built
in the period of 1704-1755 by Kilian
Dientzenhofer. There are beautiful ceiling
paintings that show scenes from the life of St.
Nicholas and St. Benedict, and a wonderful
chandelier. The southern facade is decorated
with gures of Saints. Decorated with white
stucco, it has been nicknamed, the wedding
cake, and is a classic example of Prague
baroque architecture. The splendid dome is
18m in fact higher than the Petrin Tower.
