Prague Castle, Pražský hrad, is the largest ancient castle complex in the world. Founded in 880, it is a complex of many different castles and religious buildings in different styles of architecture from the Romanesque style of the 10th century to the Gothic style of the 14th century. With a length of 570 meters, its area is larger than 7 football pitches.
The cathedral of Saint Vitus inside the castle is the biggest church in The Czech Republic. It has an outstanding gothic decoration and multicolored stained glasses. From there we also glimpse the baroque silver tomb of St. John of Nepomuk.

The UNESCO declared it to be a world heritage site because of its diverse architecture and its various museums and art galleries inside. It is open to the public for 16 hours every weekday, allowing everyone an insight into Czech history through the centuries. It is not only important for tourism but also holds political importance because it is the office of the President of the Czech Republic. In general Prague Castle is a perfect example for why Prague is famous for its beautiful architecture and urbanism. https://learningapps.org/watch?v=p5jek77ia21

The “Prašná brána”, or as we call it in English the “Gunpowder Tower” or “Powder Gate”, is one of the most famous towers in Prague and one of the most representative symbols of the city. It is a marvellous building with a beautiful gotical architecture and dark sub-tons.

It was one of the 13 defensive towers that were part of the walls surrounding the whole city, and they were built in 1475. Unfortunately in 1571, this tower in specific was destroyed by a fire but was quickly rebuilt.

Years later, during the XVII century, the tower started to be used as a storage unit to keep the gunpowder , since then the tower started to be named as “Prašná brána“.

The “Prašná brána” offers the possibility of visiting its interior to contemplate the stunning city of Prague from the top after climbing 186 steps. Inside of it you can also see an exhibition about the city and its towers.

Prague Astronomical Clock, Old Town Square, Old Town, Czechia

The Prague Astronomical Clock is one of the city's most popular landmarks. It is well over 600 years old and is one of the oldest functional astronomical clocks in the world.It is also a magnificent blend of mechanical engineering and art.

It is currently understood that the clock was actually built by one Mikuláš of Kadaň.

Let's have a look at the history and workings of this iconic timepiece.
Like other astronomical clocks, the famous Prague example is effectively a specially designed mechanism to display astronomical information. Many, like the Orloj, tend to show the relative positions of the Sun, Moon, Zodiac constellations and, sometimes, other planets.
The Prague Astronomical Clock was first installed in 1410. This makes it the world's third-oldest astronomical clock and the oldest still in operation today.For many years it was believed that the clock was designed and built by clock-master Jan Růže (also called Hanuš). This has since been shown to be a historical mistake.

The Prague Astronomical Clock is a gift that keeps on giving. During recent refurbishment works of the clock, a secret hidden message was uncovered inside one of its statues.
There is a local legend that the original clockmaker was blinded by city officials after completing their work. This was to prevent them from ever replicating their masterpiece elsewhere - a fine reward for their hard work.

Enraged by the act, the blind clockmaker climbed the tower and sabotaged his work to stop it working. The clock then remained silent for more than fifty years before being brought back into working order by Jan Taborský in 1552.

Charles Bridge is one of the oldest stone gothic bridges in Europe and the most important trade connection between Prague Castle and the city´s Old Town.  It was built from 1357 to 1402 during the reign of King Charles IV. The old stone bow bridge crosses the Moldau River. It is 516 metres long, 10 metres wide and has 16 arches. The bridge replaced the Judith Bridge after a big flood damaged and nearly destroyed it.
It survived many wars, especially the Thirty Years War and World War II. You can cross it to Charles Castle and to the old city. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Charles Bridge was originally called Stone Bridge or Prague Bridge, but since 1870 it has been referred to as Charles Bridge.

Charles Bridge is decorated by 30 statues. The most famous is the statue of John of Nepomuk, the court priest of King Wenceslas IV who was thrown off the bridge. A Czech legend says that he refused to tell the king about the queen's confession so was killed by his request. Touching this statue is a usual ritual in Prague that is said to bring good luck and to make sure that you return to Prague soon.

From the Charles Bridge (Karlův Most) we get the chance to see the stunning view of the two sides of Prague divided by the Vlatva river.

St. Nicholas Church, Old Town, historical centre of Prague

St. Nicholas church is one of the prettiest and more important churches in Prague and one of the most famous Baroque ones being one of the most outstanding examples of this artistic style’s decoration.
It was built between 1704 and 1755 and stands along with the former Jesuit college in the centre of the Lesser Town Square. The Church became the main parish church of the Lesser Town in 1775.
The church is impressive because of its architecture and decoration. The ceiling frescoes inside the dome are 70 metres high and show scenes of Saint Nicholas and his life. We can find many sculptures, making the building look like a palace.

The 79-metre-high belfry offers a great panoramic view and is directly connected to the massive dome of the church. The belfry was completed later in the Rococo style in 1751-1756.
Interestingly, the impressive Baroque organ inside the church, with over 4000 pipes up to six meters in length, was played by the famous musician Mozart in 1787. Shortly after his visit, his first spectacular masterpiece “Mass in C” was performed in the Church of Saint Nicholas. Even today, the organ is used during church music concerts which are held daily from April to October.

It was also used as an observatory for State Security during the communist era because the huge tower offered a perfect view of the American and Yugoslav embassies and the access route to the West German embassy.
