Walking through ages: 11th to 21st century, Prague flavoured
A walking tour through Prague’s four main squares (Hradčany, Lesser Town, Old Town, and Wenceslas) takes you through centuries, from the 11th to the 21st. Prague is called the "heart of Europe" for a reason—many events that shook the continent, like the Reformation and the 30 Years' War, began here. It has seen both glory, as the capital of the Holy Roman Empire and young Czechoslovakia, and decline, as a mere city of Austro-Hungary. Its medieval churches, baroque palaces, and Bauhaus quarters hold memories of it all.
For centuries, Prague was a crossroads of German, Jewish, and Czech cultures. Golem was created here; Doctor Faust lived here. More recently, it’s linked to Mozart, Kafka, and Milos Forman.
On our walk, you'll see Prague’s most iconic sights and explore its history, architecture, and culture. I look forward to our conversation—whether about medieval history, food, or nightlife, I’ll guide you.
