The experience begins at Prague’s Old Town Hall, one of the most important historical landmarks in the city. Built in the 14th century, the complex served as the administrative center of Prague’s Old Town for centuries. Its Gothic tower dominates the square and offers one of the most recognizable views in the city. Travelers will learn how the town hall developed from a single medieval house into a large complex of buildings and how it played a key role in Prague’s political and civic life. This stop also introduces the historical context of Old Town Square before continuing to the nearby Astronomical Clock.

The next stop is the famous Prague Astronomical Clock, one of the most remarkable medieval mechanical clocks in the world. Installed in 1410, it is the third oldest astronomical clock still operating today. Travelers will discover how the clock works and what its complex dials represent, including medieval time, the movement of the sun and moon, and the zodiac. Every hour the clock performs a short mechanical show featuring moving figures of the Apostles and other symbolic characters representing medieval ideas about life and death. This stop explains the fascinating story behind the clock, its creators, and the legends that surround it.

Old Town Square has been the historical heart of Prague for more than a thousand years. Surrounded by Gothic, Renaissance, and Baroque buildings, the square reflects the rich architectural and political history of the city. Travelers will learn how this space functioned as Prague’s main marketplace and gathering place during the Middle Ages. Many important events in Czech history took place here, including royal celebrations, public gatherings, and dramatic political moments. From this central point visitors can also see several of the square’s most famous landmarks, including the Old Town Hall, the Astronomical Clock, the Church of Our Lady before Týn, and the Jan Hus Monument.

At the center of Old Town Square stands the monumental statue of Jan Hus, one of the most important figures in Czech history. Hus was a religious reformer and preacher who criticized corruption within the medieval church and called for a return to its original values. His teachings attracted large crowds in Prague but also brought him into conflict with church authorities. In 1415 he was condemned for heresy and burned at the stake in the city of Constance. His death later inspired the Hussite movement and a series of religious conflicts that shaped the history of the Czech lands. The monument, unveiled in 1915, commemorates his legacy and symbolizes the Czech tradition of religious reform and independence.

The House at the Stone Bell is one of the most remarkable Gothic buildings on Old Town Square. Originally constructed in the 13th century and rebuilt in the 14th century, it once served as an important aristocratic residence connected to the royal court. Historians believe that members of the Luxembourg dynasty may have stayed here when Prague became an imperial capital under Charles IV. The building takes its unusual name from a small stone bell embedded in the corner of its façade. Today the house is part of the City of Prague Gallery and regularly hosts art exhibitions. At this stop travelers will learn about the medieval history of the building and its connection to Prague’s royal past.

The Church of Our Lady before Týn is one of the most iconic landmarks of Prague. Its two tall Gothic towers dominate the skyline of Old Town Square and have become one of the most recognizable symbols of the city. Construction of the church began in the 14th century during the reign of Charles IV, when Prague was one of the most important political and cultural centers in Europe. For centuries the church served as a major religious center of the Old Town and later became closely associated with the Hussite movement. Visitors will learn about the history of the church, its distinctive Gothic architecture, and the legends connected to its famous towers, which locals sometimes describe as representing Adam and Eve.

Ungelt, also known as Týn Courtyard, was one of the most important commercial centers of medieval Prague. Located just behind the Church of Our Lady before Týn, this hidden courtyard served as a customs yard where foreign merchants had to register their goods and pay taxes before selling them in the city. The name “Ungelt” comes from an old German word meaning customs duty. Traders from across Europe passed through this courtyard, bringing goods such as cloth, spices, metals, and wine. In addition to trade, the complex also provided storage areas, stables, and lodging for traveling merchants. Today Ungelt is a quiet and picturesque courtyard, but it still reflects the atmosphere of Prague’s medieval trading life.

The final stop of the experience brings visitors to one of Prague’s oldest religious complexes, the Minorite Friary and the nearby Basilica of St. James. The monastery was founded in the 13th century by the Franciscan order and has been closely connected with the history of Prague’s Old Town ever since. Visitors will explore the peaceful monastery complex, including historic halls that once hosted important gatherings and events. The visit also includes the impressive Basilica of St. James, one of the largest Baroque churches in Prague, known for its richly decorated interior and remarkable organ. Inside the basilica visitors can also discover one of Prague’s most famous legends connected with the mummified hand of a medieval thief. This part of the experience includes access to the monastery interiors and exhibitions, offering a unique glimpse into a hidden historical site in the heart of the city.
