This itinerary allows you to witness centuries of stories, architecture and heritage within a compact, two-hour excursion, led by a passionate and knowledgeable local guide.

Step into the Old Town

Your journey begins as you step onto the cobbled streets of the Old Town, the very paths once walked by merchants, artists and revolutionaries. Marvel at the iconic Astronomical Clock that has marked centuries from its perch on the Old Town Hall, and gaze up at the striking spires of the Church of Our Lady before Tyn dominating the skyline. Your guide will bring to life tales that are woven into the facades and corners of lively Old Town Square, sharing not only well-known legends but also lesser-told stories such as the community effort behind the Jan Hus Monument.

Continue past St. James Church, known for its vibrant stained glass and storied past, while your guide points out hidden architectural details and the evolution of the neighbourhood through the ages.

Jewish Quarter: Stories of Heritage

Leaving the Old Town, your path leads into Josefov, the Jewish Quarter. Here, centuries-old tradition and poignant history come alive. Wander the lanes beside the Old Jewish Cemetery, where uneven headstones and ancient trees bear witness to the lives of Prague’s Jewish community. Pause to admire the unique Hebrew clock on the Old Town Hall that turns counterclockwise, a rare symbol of the area’s distinct historic identity.

Learn about prominent figures such as Franz Kafka, with stories from his birth home and reflections on his literary impact despite mostly writing in German. The rich tapestry of Jewish heritage, resilience and artistry is unraveled through the expert storytelling of your guide, providing a deeper understanding of both struggle and achievement across generations.
