Product description
This audio guide takes you around Hradčany, the historic district right beside Prague Castle — a baroque pilgrimage site, a lane of tiny coloured cottages that almost nobody finds, and a square lined with palaces at the castle gates.
Your visit starts at the Loreto, one of Prague's most important pilgrimage sites. Hidden inside stands a copy of a small stone house from Nazareth — the house where, according to Christian tradition, the Virgin Mary lived. You will explore the chapel, the cloister, a baroque church and a treasury filled with centuries of gifts from pilgrims.
Then you step outside — and the walk begins.
You will descend into Nový Svět, a lane of tiny coloured houses where the noise of the city stops. Tycho Brahe lived here in 1600. Allen Ginsberg visited in 1965. And almost every house carries a golden name — you will find out why.
From there you climb back up to Hradčany Square — the square everyone crosses on the way to the castle, and almost nobody stops at. You will discover its renaissance palaces, a baroque plague column, and a gas lamp that still burns with a real flame.
Your walk ends at a viewpoint over the red rooftops of Prague.
Please note: this tour does not include Prague Castle.
