Prague is renowned as being one of Europeโs most beautiful cities. Unlike many cities in Europe, Prague emerged from World War II unscathed, with its historic architecture and cultural treasures intact. Climbing its gothic towers, visiting its ancient cathedrals, and strolling the colorful streets all top the list of things to do in Prague.
Prague is called the โCity of a Hundred Spires.โ If you climb one of Pragueโs many towers, youโll understand why this city has this nickname. Church spires rise up throughout the city in all directions, an amazing sight to see.
Prague suffered minor bombing during World War II, but nothing like many other European cities. Most of its original historic architecture remains intact. Seeing these original gothic towers, and climbing them for a view of the city, is one of the best things to do in Prague.
This guide starts off with the top 10 things to do in Prague, perfect for those who are planning a quick trip to the city or only want to visit the โmust-sees.โ We then go on to list more things to do in Prague, for those with more time.

Top 10 Things to Do in Prague
1. Stroll across the Charles Bridge
Charles Bridge (Karlov Most) is one of the most famous pedestrian bridges in the world, connecting the Old Town to the Lesser Town (Mala Strana).
It is an extremely photogenic walk, with views of Prague Castle, Vltava River, Old Town Tower Bridge, and Lesser Town Tower Bridge.

Thirty statues line the bridge, including many famous saints (St. Francis of Assisi, St. Christopher, St. Ivo, and St. Wenceslas all have a place along Charles Bridge).
The oldest statue on the bridge is St. John of Nepomuk. In 1393, St. John of Nepomuk was thrown from the bridge and then a statue was erected in his honor. Look for the bronze statue of a saint with a golden halo around his head (it will most likely be surrounded by a group of people). Touching the Charles Bridge here brings good fortune and ensures a return visit to Prague.
St. John of Nepomuk
2. Climb the Towers of Prague
Prague is called the โCity of a Hundred Spiresโ and there is no better way to view this cityscape than from the top of its many towers. Here is a list of the best gothic towers to climb in Prague.
Old Town Hall Tower
This tower is part of the Old Town Hall. It sits next to Staromฤstskรฉ nรกmฤstรญ, Pragueโs most famous square. Praลพskรฝ orloj, the Prague Astronomical Clock, is located on the outside of the Old Town Hall.
An elevator takes you most of the way to the top, making this the easiest tower to visit in Prague. The next portion of the โclimbโ can be done with another short elevator ride or a 5-minute walk up a large, spiraling ramp. Then it is one final climb up a narrow, metal spiral staircase, so you will have to climb a few steps, but thatโs nothing compared to the other tower climbs on this list.
The spiraling ramp and the frame of the elevator
From the top of the Old Town Hall tower you get 360ยฐ views of Prague. Itโs one of the best views of Prague and you can snap the iconic photo of the Tรฝn Church and Staromฤstskรฉ nรกmฤstรญ.

For another classic view of Prague, climb the steps of the Old Town Bridge Tower. This tower sits at the eastern end of the Charles Bridge and from here you get the iconic view of Charles Bridge with the backdrop of Prague Castle, as well as views over the Old Town. Itโs one of the best viewpoints in the city.

The Powder Tower is a gothic tower located to the east of Staromฤstskรฉ nรกmฤstรญ and the heart of the old town. It doesnโt have the same iconic views as the towers already mentioned, but you still get a very nice view of Pragueโs old town.

3. Visit Prague Castle (Praลพskรฝ hrad)
According to the Guinness Book of World Records, Prague Castle is the largest castle complex in the world. It is the official office of the President of the Czech Republic and was the seat of power for Bohemian kings, Holy Roman emperors, and Czechoslovakian presidents. It is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Prague Castle is massive and has a long list of things to see and do. You can spend an hour or two here, or almost a full day. With multiple ticket options and multiple entrances, planning a visit here can feel overwhelming.
In roughly 2 to 3 hours, you can visit the Old Royal Palace, St. Vitus Cathedral, St. Georgeโs Basilica, and stroll along the Golden Lane. Add on the tower climb at Saint Vitus Cathedral for a birdโs eye view of Prague.

Visiting Prague Castle: 10 Things to Know Before You Go
In our guide to Prague Castle, we cover everything you need to know, including the best things to do, ticket types, how to visit Prague Castle for free, with lots of tips to help you have the best experience.PRO TRAVEL TIP: You can enter Prague Castle without a ticket. You will pass through a security check and then are free to enter the grounds of the castle. However, in order to enter any of the buildings (such as Saint Vitus Cathedral and the Old Royal Palace) and the Golden Lane, you will need a ticket.
4. St. Nicholas Church
St. Nicholas Church (Kostel svatรฉho Mikulรกลกe) is a Baroque church in Mala Strana. It sits just down the hill from Prague Castle and it is a short walk from Charles Bridge. Note: there is a second St. Nicholas Church which is located in the Old Town, next to the Old Town Square.
This church dates back to the 13th century. However, during the 18th century it was completely rebuilt.
On a visit here, view the nave from the ground floor level. Climb the steps to the second level for an even better view of the nave and the interior of the cathedral. There is a small fee to enter the church and the ticket booth is located in the lobby.
For hours and entrance fees into St. Nicholas Church (which is separate from the tower), click here.
For a breathtaking view of Mala Strana, climb the bell tower of St. Nicholas Church. A long series of wooden staircases takes you up to outdoor and indoor observation platforms. To do this, purchase a ticket from the ticket booth next to the tower (a separate ticket office than the one inside of the church). Get hours and pricing here.

5. Stroll through the Old Town
One of the best things to do in Prague is to wander the colorful, cobblestoned streets of the Old Town. These picturesque streets are lined with shops and restaurants.
Strolling from the Old Town Tower Bridge along Karlova street to the Old Town Square is particularly scenic, but it is also well worth your time to walk along the narrow streets that branch out from here.
Karlova Street
6. Staromฤstskรฉ nรกmฤstรญ, the Old Town Square
This iconic square is one of the oldest, grandest squares in Prague. In the 11th century, markets were regularly held here. Those continue today (this square hosts Pragueโs best Christmas market in December) but it is also a landmark of the city and a popular tourist attraction.
The Old Town Square is surrounded by other famous buildings, including the Old Town Hall, the Tรฝn Church, the second St. Nicholas Church in Prague, and numerous Baroque and Rococo houses.
Running through the Old Town Square is the Prague Prime Meridian, which was used to tell time from 1652 to 1918.
The Tรฝn Church, also called the Church of Our Lady before Tรฝn, is the main focal point of Old Town Square. It is rather plain looking on the inside and only worth visiting if you have a little extra time on your hands. You cannot take photos of the interior of the church.

7. Watch the Show at the Astronomical Clock
The astronomical clock (Praลพskรฝ orloj) is a complicated mechanism that shows several different versions of time. At the top of every hour, the clock puts on a brief show: a skeleton rings his bell, twelve apostles walk by, a rooster crows, and then the clock chimes.
The Astronomical Clock draws a big crowd each hour!
We didnโt think the show quite lived up to the hype, but even so, it is still one of those things that you must see while in Prague. It draws an enormous crowd every hour.
The Astronomical Clock sits on the outside of the Old Town Hall. If you want to see the inner workings of the clock, visit the inside of the Old Town Hall.
8. Visit the Jewish Quarter
The Jewish Quarter, also called the Jewish Ghetto or Josefov, is a an area near the Old Town where Jewish people lived in Prague. At one time, it is estimated that over 18,000 people lived within this small walled area. Most of the quarter was demolished at the beginning of the 20th century, so only a few original buildings remain.
Here are places to visit in the Jewish Quarter.
Old New Synagogue
This is Europeโs oldest active synagogue. Built in 1270, it is one of Pragueโs first Gothic buildings.
Old New Synagogue
Inside the Old New Synagogue
Old Jewish Cemetery
This is one of the largest Jewish cemeteries in Europe. People were buried here between the 15th century and 1786. Because of lack of space, tombstones are literally stacked on top of one another.
Pinkas Synagogue
This is the second oldest surviving synagogue in Prague. Today it commemorates over 77,297 Czech Jewish victims of the Holocaust.
Pinkas Synagogue
Spanish Synagogue
This is the newest synagogue in the Jewish Quarter. It was built on the same site as the oldest synagogue. This synagogue gets its name because it was built in Moorish Revival Style. There is a permanent exhibition about the history of Jews in Bohemia from the 1780โs until after World War II.
Spanish Synagogue
Statue of Franz Kafka
Franz Kafka is a Jewish novelist. His best-known works include Metamorphosis and The Trial. His statue stands outside of the Spanish Synagogue.
9. Enjoy a Glass or Two of Czech Beer
The Czech Republic is known for brewing some of the worldโs best beer. There are numerous pubs and beer halls to visit in Prague. We tried U Fleku, U Medvidku, and the Strahov Monastery Brewery, but the list is endless.
And you donโt have to just drink your beer. Another popular thing to do in Prague is to visit a beer spa, where you soak in a tank of beer.
At the Pilsner Urquell Experience, you can also learn how to perfectly pour a pint of beer (at the Tapster Academy).
You can also take a tour where you sample seven varieties of Czech beer paired with cheese and crackers.
10. The Lennon Wall
When John Lennon was killed in 1980, this wall was covered with memorial graffiti overnight. Every night the police would paint over the graffiti and the next day it would reappear. John Lennonโs ideas gave the Czech people hope during communist rule, so this wall became a symbol of freedom.
The Lennon Wall is located in Mala Strana.

1. Nรกrodnรญ Museum (The National Museum)
The National Museum is a complex of buildings that contain almost 14 million objects. It sits at the top of Wenceslas Square.
The interior of the main building is gorgeous and recently underwent a major renovation. The highlight of our visit here was seeing and photographing the main staircases in the foyer and the murals on the domed ceiling.
Inside the National Museum
The main building is connected to the new building (which was the former Prague Stock Exchange) by an underground tunnel.
On display are natural science exhibitions, a Hall of Minerals, exhibitions about prehistoric life, and a history of the Czech lands.

3. Jerusalem Synagogue
The Jerusalem Synagogue, also called the Jubilee Synagogue, gets its name for its location on Jerusalem Street. It is located outside of the Jewish Quarter. It was built in 1906 in Moorish Revival form with Art Nouveau decorations.
Jerusalem Synagogue
This colorful synagogue looks like is wedged in between the buildings around it. It is just a vibrant on the inside as it is on the outside, with stained-glass windows, painted archways and columns, and beautiful ceiling.
On the upper level are historical exhibitions. Concerts are regularly held in the synagogue. Get hours and pricing here.
4. Try a Trdelnรญk
Trdelnรญks, also called Chimney Cakes, are Pragueโs best sweet treat.
Dough is wrapped around a large stick and then baked over an open fire, slowly rotating, similar to a rotisserie chicken. It is then topped with sugar and walnuts. You can eat it plain or have it filled with ice cream. Youโll see these for sale at small stands all over Prague.
5. Speculum Alchemiae Museum
This is one of the best hidden gems in Prague. Sitting underground, under one of the oldest houses in Prague, is a laboratory where alchemists were attempting to create an elixir of youth. This underground lair dates back to the time of King Rudolf II.
The laboratory was discovered after a flood in Prague in 2002 and the space has been turned into a small museum. You can tour this museum with a guide and learn about its fascinating history. It is a bit hokey at times but it is an interesting look into the efforts to turn lead into gold, the Philosopherโs Stone, and the elixirs of eternal youth. You also learn about tunnels that led from this laboratory to the Old Town and Prague Castle.
This is one of the best things to do in Prague with kids.
Tours last 30 minutes. Get hours and pricing on the official website.
6. National Memorial to the Heroes of the Heydrich Terror Horror
During World War II, Czech paratroopers attacked Reinhard Heydrich, a high-ranking Nazi known as the โButcher of Prague,โ and he died of his injuries one week later. It was one of the few successful assassinations during the war.
The paratroopers took shelter in the crypt of the Baroque Church of Saints Cyril and Methodius. From May 27 to June 18, the church provided a hideout for the seven Czechoslovak paratroopers. Their hiding place was betrayed, a battle with the Nazis ensued, and all of the paratroopers died, either from the battle or by taking their own lives.
The crypt is now a museum and memorial. Bullet holes still scar the walls and information signs tell more about the incident.
The entrance into the memorial is separate from the church. The entrance is on street level. There is a small fee to enter and a visit here takes about 30 minutes.
7. Dancing House
The Dancing House, also called Ginger and Fred, is a unique looking building famous for its deconstructivist architecture. Photographing the outside of this building is a popular thing to do in Prague but you can also visit the upper terrace for panoramic views of Prague. The Dancing House is also a hotel and restaurant.
Dancing House
View from the Glass Bar
The Glass Bar sits on the top floor of the Dancing House and has a rooftop terrace (the best place in the Dancing House for photography). You can also dine with a view at the Fred and Ginger Restaurant or stay in one of the hotel rooms.
8. Dine in a Gothic Tower
There are many towers in Prague, each offering a unique view over the โCity of a Hundred Spires.โ But if you want an even more unique experience, then book a table at Restaurant Zvonice.
Located near the top of Jindลiลกskรก Tower, a 15th century tower, you will dine under the wooden rafters and next to the original bell. The menu offers a variety of traditional Czech dishes. Their signature dish, wild boar sirloin in a red wine sauce with potato lumps was phenomenal. And make sure you get their chocolate truffles for dessert. The molten chocolate oozes from these large truffles. Reservations are a must.
You can also walk or take the elevator to the highest room of the tower for another panoramic view of Prague.
9. Visit Lobkowicz Palace
Lobkowicz Palace is a 16th century palace in Prague Castle. It is a privately owned palace and is on a separate ticket from Prague Castle.
This palace is now a museum, displaying paintings by famous artists such as Pieter Brueghel the Elder and Canaletto, decorative art, weapons and hunting equipment, and original manuscripts by Beethoven and Mozart. Classical music concerts are also held in the palace.
The restaurant and cafรฉ has an outdoor terrace with a panoramic view of Prague. You do not need a ticket to the palace to visit the restaurant.
The view from Lobkowicz Palace
You can tour Lobkowicz Palace without purchasing a ticket to tour Prague Castle. To get to the palace, the best entrance into the castle is the Na Opysi entrance on the east end of the castle.
Tickets are sold online in advance and at the entrance to Lobkowicz Palace.
10. Tour the Old Town Hall
The Old Town Hall already got a mention for its tower and its Astronomical Clock. But it is also important to know that you can tour the inside of the Old Town Hall to see a few notable rooms.
Things to do at the Old Town Hall include touring the state rooms, seeing the chapel, and seeing the inner workings of the Astronomical Clock. You can get a close-up look of the apostles on the Astronomical Clock from the inside of the building.

11. Enjoy the View from Petrin Tower
This tower, designed to resemble the Eiffel Tower, just on a smaller scale, offers another breathtaking view of Prague. It was built in 1891. The Petrin Tower sits on Petrin Hill, in a gardenlike setting west of the Vltava River.
This is the highest viewpoint of the city and from here you get a sweeping view of Prague.
The view from Petrin Tower
To get to the top of the tower, climb 299 steps or take the elevator for an additional fee. Get hours and pricing here.
12. Memorial to the Victims of Communism
This memorial is located near the bottom station of the funicular to Petrin Tower. Six bronze statues commemorate the victims of the communist regime in Czechoslovakia between 1948 and 1989. Each statue stands on a different step and their gradual destruction represents their treatment as political prisoners.
Memorial to the Victims of Communism
13. Vyลกehrad
Vyลกehrad is a fort that stands beside the Vltava River in Prague. There are several things to do on a visit here.
Basilica of St. Peter and St. Paul. This neo-Gothic basilica was constructed between 1887 and 1903. The walls and pillars are covered with paintings inspired by Alphonse Mucha, giving this church a very colorful, unique appearance.
Vyลกehrad Cemetery. This cemetery is the final resting place of famous Czechs, such as Alphonse Mucha, Antonรญn Dvoลรกk, and Karel ฤapek.
Vyลกehrad Cemetery
Views of Prague. Walk the fortress walls for sweeping views over the Vltava River and the city of Prague.
You can also see the Romanesque Rotunda of St. Martin, walk the casemates, and tour Gorlice Hall, which holds some of the original statues from Charles Bridge.
Rotunda of St. Martin
To get here, you can use public transportation. We used Uber, getting dropped off at Leopold Gate and then walking through the fortress from here. Learn more here.
14. Wenceslas Square
This large, bustling square is lined with office buildings, hotels, restaurants, and shops. Sitting at the top of the square is the National Museum. It is named after Saint Wenceslas, the patron saint of Bohemia.
Over the centuries, numerous demonstrations and celebrations have been held here. Large demonstrations were held here during the Velvet Revolution in 1989.
Wenceslas Square
15. Strahov Monastery & Library
The Strahov Monastery is an abbey which was founded in the 12th century.
The most popular thing to see here is the Strahov Library. A basic ticket allows you to see the two rooms of the library (the Theological Hall and the Philosophical Hall) from Cabinet of Curiosities. You will stand at the entrance to the two halls but wonโt be permitted to enter.
Philosophical Hall
Theological Hall
If you want to enter the rooms, you will have to take a guided tour, which is set up in advance by email. Get pricing, hours, and learn more on the official website.
At the Strahov Monastery, you can also tour the Strahov Picture Gallery, see the inside of the Church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary on Strahov, and have lunch, dinner, or a beer at the Strahov Brewery.
16. Have a Cocktail at Pragueโs Best Bars
Prague may be well known for its beer, but it is also home to quite a few unique cocktail bars.
Our personal favorite is the Alchemist Bar with a very creative menu of cocktails. At the Anonymous Bar, the bartenders wear V for Vendetta masks, preparing cocktails with a wide range of presentations, from fire shows to drinks served in mini blood donation bags. The Monkey Bar is a hip place to have a drink, snack, or meal. The food was so good we considered staying here, skipping our dinner reservation.

Havelโs Market is an outdoor market that is open year round in Prague. For sale are tons of souvenirs, from ceramics to smaller versions of the Astronomical Clock to Christmas ornaments and much, much more. If you want to purchase souvenirs from Prague, this is the best market to visit.
Havel’s Market
18. Visit Pragueโs Beautiful Buildings
ฤeskรก Poลกta is the main post office in Prague. If you will be nearby, it is worth stepping inside to see its beautiful interior. It is located at Jindลiลกskรก 909, near Wenceslas Square.
Inside the post office
The Municipal House and concert hall (Obecnรญ Dลฏm), located next to Nรกmฤstรญ Republiky and the Powder Tower, is an Art Nouveau building that was decorated by Alfons Mucha, Jan Preisler, and other artists.
19. Gallery of Steel Figures
This is not the type of museum we would typically enter but it gets such great reviews that we had to see what all of the hype was about. And Iโm glad we did, as we were truly impressed.
The artist uses recycled steel to create each piece in the exhibit. On a visit here, you will see a wide range of figures, from superheroes, Star Wars characters, Disney characters, transformers, and more. Game of Thrones fans will enjoy sitting on the replica of the Iron Throne.
A visit here lasts about 30 minutes. The gallery is located on Celetnรก, a very short walk from the OId Town Square. Get hours and pricing on the official website.
20. Quirky Statues and Art Installations
Located throughout Prague are interesting statues and sculptures, some in very unexpected places. We donโt think it is worth going out of your way to see them, but you can mark them on your map (they are also marked on our map below) and visit them if you will be in the area.
Step inside the Municipal Library of Prague to see the cylindrical stack of books from floor to ceiling. We were amazed at the long lines to enter the library to see these books. With so many other things to do in Prague, it didnโt seem worth the wait for us. But if you go at opening time, you can miss the line and save yourself a lot of time.
Man Hanging Out. David ฤernรฝ’s statue of Sigmund Freud hangs by a pole over Husova street, in the Old Town of Prague.
Man Hanging Out
Woman with Umbrella & Slight Uncertainty. These two statues dangle above the city street in front of the Mosaic House.
Water Mill with the Gremlin (Mlรฝn Huลฅ) is located near the Lennon Wall in Mala Strana. Legend has it that this water sprite begs those passing by for a beer. If given a beer, heโll reward you with fresh fish.
From Kampa Park, you can look out over the Vltava River to a line of yellow penguins, a famous Instagram spot in Prague.
Finally, there is the Rotating Head of Franz Kafka by David ฤernรฝ. It is located near the Nรกrodnรญ tลรญda metro station.
