Old Town Square

Where does the true heart of Prague beat if not in the Old Town Square? It's here that the winding streets of the Old Town converge, unfolding into what is arguably Prague's most stunning square.

This eclectic blend creates an atmosphere that’s genuinely enchanting, capturing the hearts of anyone who pauses to take it all in.

For over a millennium, the Old Town Square has quietly observed the ebb and flow of Czech history. It has witnessed pivotal moments: from significant demonstrations and solemn executions to joyous weddings, thrilling tournaments, and critical political gatherings. Each corner of this square tells a story, whispering secrets of the past to those who listen.

When you visit, take a moment to soak in the vibrant energy of the bustling cafes and street performers. The square is also a fantastic spot for people-watching, with tourists and locals alike mingling in this historic hub. And if you're lucky enough to visit during the holiday season, you'll find the square transformed into a magical Christmas market, complete with twinkling lights and the aroma of mulled wine in the air.
