Churches of Prague

Prague is often called “the city of a hundred spires,” and nowhere is this more visible than in its churches. From Gothic masterpieces to Baroque jewels, the city’s sacred buildings tell stories of faith, art, and resilience.

Even if you’re not religious, these spaces are breathtaking works of architecture and history. They offer a quiet refuge from busy streets, a place to reflect, and a direct connection to the city’s soul.

Rising dramatically above Old Town Square, this twin-spired Gothic church has been watching over Prague since the 14th century. Step inside to see its richly decorated altars and learn about the Hussite movement that shaped Czech history.

St. Vitus Cathedral
Dominating Prague Castle, St. Vitus is the spiritual heart of the Czech Republic. Its soaring Gothic nave, intricate stained glass by artist Alfons Mucha, and the tombs of kings and saints make it a must-visit. Climb the tower for panoramic views that stretch across the city.

St. Nicholas Church, Malá Strana
A Baroque masterpiece with lavish frescoes, gilded details, and a monumental dome. Concerts here fill the church with classical music, echoing in perfect acoustics.
