Itinerary
The Old Town Hall in Prague was founded in 1338 (the first in Bohemia) on the basis of a privilege granted to the Old Town burghers by King John of Luxembourg. It is also the first stop in our audio guide
St. Nicholas Church is located in Prague on Old Town Square. The present church is a baroque new building from 1732-1737. With an audio guide, we will describe its beautiful exteriors, which are captivating at first sight.
The Church of Our Lady before Týn is located in Prague's Old Town near Old Town Square. Its construction took place from the middle of the 14th century to the first decades of the 16th century.
Today's house is a remnant of a larger residence from before the middle of the 14th century and probably served as a temporary residence of Eliška Přemyslovna and Jan Lucemburský after they moved to Prague.
audioguide focuses of the buildings located in the middle of the Prague Old Town
Today's rococo palace was built for Count Jan Arnost Goltz († 1765) of the Prussian Goltz family between 1755 and 1765 according to earlier plans by Kilian Ignaz Dientzenhofer and under the direction of the architect Anselm Lurag. The façade was richly decorated with stucco by C. G. Bossi.
The house served as a pharmacy, hence the name at the White Lion, and later became the Tobacco House, where the name House at Minute first appeared. A meteorological column stood in front of the eastern facade of the house towards the Old Town Hall from 1883.

About Prague
Prague's skyline of spires rises over the Vltava, with a hilltop castle, statue-lined bridge and a medieval old town that survived largely intact.
Prague Castle, one of the largest castle complexes anywhere, crowns the hill of Hradčany, with St Vitus Cathedral at its centre and the tiny houses of Golden Lane tucked behind. Below, the Lesser Town's Baroque palaces and terraced gardens lead down to the Charles Bridge, lined with statues of saints and busy from dawn.
Top-ranked sights in Prague: Charles Bridge (Karluv Most), Prague Castle (Pražský Hrad), Prague Old Town Square (Staromestské Námestí).
