15 Unique Things to Do in Prague (Updated 2025)

"Located on an intimate Old Town square, I was struck by how this chapel was the pulpit where Jan Hus preached in Czech in the early 15th century (radical at the time), and how the building’s simplicity and lack of icons reflect Hus’s philosophy of worship; it’s open daily and admission is free." - Matthew Kepnes

Beautiful chapel located in Prague Old Town area. Amazing organ and beautiful paintings on the way. It cost approx $3 USD to enter and is worth a look around. I really enjoyed my visit.

Interesting and beautiful place - a hidden gem in a heart of Prague! Entrance prices are reasonable and less than 5 euro. There is a nice guide (male) who speaks very good English. There are also information leaflets about the Chapel in many languages. Really worth a visit

During our visit to Prague, my wife and I also visited the very interesting Bethlehem Chapel, which is interesting from the time of the Reformation and is associated with the reformer and great mind Jan Hus. Photos of the interior say a lot. But it is interesting that you can read about the history of the chapel in your own language.

We had my daughter’s University graduation there. One word comes into my head—magical! It is an absolutely beautiful Gothic chapel. It is definitely worth visiting.

If you’re interested in some history, review the life of Jan Huss. Very interesting depending what your interested in

Lots more to see in Prague. Wouldn’t recommend unless you already seen the other sights. On the other hand we were the only ones there.

An important historical landmark in Prague Old Town This was the site of a large chapel from the High Middle Ages were the gospel was to be preached in Czech. Jan Hus preached from here and it was here that the burgeoning Hussite movement began to take root in the Czech lands. After the burning of Hus by the emperor and the Hussite Wars, the chapel continued to be used by the Hussites, until the Thirty Years War, when it was taken over by the Jesuits. It subsequently fell into disrepair and was allowed to be demolished, but it was reconstructed under the Communists, who saw Hus as an early champion of the proletariat. The hall has been well reconstructed and there are guides and interpretative materials to allow one to see the importance of this hall in the history of Prague and the wider world.

Amazing experience in the place which such a powerful history. Very well preserved and reconstructed together with interesting exposition mainly consisting of the boards with historical overview of Hus himself (his house is still preserved at the place) and the chapel.
