Staroměstská radnice

The best part of this place is the tower view, which comes with a price tag. But trust me, it’s worth it. The view from above is breathtaking, and it’s definitely worth the money. Check out my picture to see the amazing view you can get.

Prague's Old Town Hall is one of the city's most beautiful historical landmarks. It is a famous astronomical clock built in 1410 AD, the third of its kind, attracting crowds of tourists every hour. It offers a stunning panoramic view of Prague's red rooftops, Old Town Square, and the Vltava River. The building's historic atmosphere and well-preserved interior make the experience even more special. If you visit Prague, don't miss a visit to this iconic landmark! The clock is located on the south wall of the Old Town Hall in Old Town Square. The clock mechanism consists of three main components: the astronomical disc, which represents the position of the sun and moon in the sky and displays various astronomical details; statues of various Catholic saints standing on either side of the clock; the "March of the Apostles," an hourly display of animated apostles and other sculptures, notably a skeleton representing Death, striking the time; and a calendar disc with medallions representing the months. According to local legend, the city will suffer if the clock is neglected and its good work is jeopardized. A ghost attached to the clock is said to nod its head in confirmation. Legend also states that the only hope lies in a boy born on New Year's Eve.

Great view from the tower. One of the best is Prague. You can take elevator or be brave and have fun and walk the stairs for a few flights then it is an easy incline ramp to the top, until you get to a spiral stair that has a stop & go light! Fun place to see the town

You do not have to buy a tour to climb (or ride the elevator) up the astronomical clock tower. You are able to go to their ticket booth and buy a ticket, possibly even at a discounted price if you’re there just as they open. I’m so glad our walking tour guide from the day before told us this! All of the ”guided tour” tickets were either sold out or did not work with our schedule, so having this information allowed us to experience this historical clock tower. There are two interior elevators, the first one everyone can take, the second one is for those who paid for elevator tickets. The second elevator is a circular glass elevator that will take you to the top of where you can go. Otherwise, you walk up steps and ramps. The view is beautiful, even if you have gone up other towers in the area. Apparently, Prague is known as “the city of a hundred spires!” This one is definitely worth visiting!

Beautiful historic town square, would highly recommend heading there between 8-9am and you will absolutely miss the crowds. Also if you want to see the astronomical clock working and in action, make sure you are there on the hour.

The Old Town Hall in Prague is one of the city’s most beautiful historical landmarks. Its main attraction is the famous Astronomical Clock, which draws crowds of tourists every hour. Climbing the tower is definitely worth it – it offers a breathtaking panoramic view of Prague’s red rooftops, Old Town Square, and the Vltava River. The historic atmosphere of the building and its well-preserved interiors make the experience even more special. If you visit Prague, don’t miss this iconic sight!

We had the 9 Landmarks in 365 days ticket from the powder tower and then booked a slot for the old town hall. It didn't disappoint we found it really interesting. Didn't pay extra for the lift to the tower but it was easy to walk up.

In addition to the astronomical clock, the Old Town Hall offers a tour of the interior and a beautiful view of the entire city from the tower. The staff at the ticket office is helpful, they will advise you on the best ticket option. You have to pay extra for the elevator, but it is not difficult to walk at all. The panorama is truly amazing, I can only recommend a visit.

The old town hall is one of the mainstays of Prague's old town square. The building itself is impressive and made even more famous by the popular astronomical clock just adjacent to the town hall itself. It is arguably the busiest part of the actual town square due to the huge masses of tourists and some locals who are here to snap photos and take pictures of that impressive landmark. There are opportunities to go up the building and get some really gorgeous views of the town square and Prague itself. It's really hard not to appreciate the beautiful architecture and views in this area. Note - town square aside, which features a lot of local kiosks and food - a good deal of shops in this area are pure tourist traps and sell a lot of useless junk, unless you're a fan of cheap shitty t-shirts, bags and magnets. However, there are plenty of gems that you can find and this place isn't far in terms of walking distance from other historic and better shopping areas in the city.

This place was seriously legit. Being in the bohemia was a lot of fun and the architecture was absolutely amazing. After some point it all seems to blend together from country to country. This was located right in the middle of a Prague and there's a really cool fountain near by. There's street performers and a lot of food carts. Try to eat outside of the touristy areas.

My favorite cathedral cathedral in all of Europe right here in Prague's Old Town. The most fascinating cathedral I ever seen on my life! It is so fairytale like I actually referred to it as Maleficent's castle. Only because it looks like a place a Disney villain would live in. I absolutely love this landmark, it's so gorgeous and you absolutely must see it.

Awesome clock! Goes off every hour and you can see everything move and the apostles come out. It goes quick so be ready. You can also sign up for a tour (pay tour) inside and you can see the inside of the clock and all the apostles on the other side of the clock. A fun little peek inside.
