Prague Old Town New Town and Jewish Quarter Morning Tour

Rudolfinum

Nestled in the heart of Prague lies the breathtaking and iconic Rudolfinum. This stunning concert hall, opened in 1885, is a sight to behold. Enjoy its awe-inspiring Neo-Renaissance architecture that exudes grandeur from every corner.

It’s not just its beauty that makes this building so special – it can be heard around the world, with prestigious soloists and orchestras setting their stage here for performances that have earned an international reputation.

As we were strolling past Rudolfinum, a delightful street fair was in full swing as you can see in the video. We got to sample some of the tasty local delicacies and soak up some incredible entertainment!

Standing at the bridge, we had a majestic view of Prague Castle, and I have a 360 VR video and blog of that area here.

Jewish Quarter of Prague

Experience the Jewish Quarter of Prague like never before! This area, known as Josefov, has been home to Jews since the 13th Century and is rich in culture and history.

There is no shortage of things to do in Prague’s Jewish Quarter! Take a tour of the many synagogues in the area, including the Old-New Synagogue and the Spanish Synagogue. Immerse yourself in history by visiting landmarks such as the Old Jewish Cemetery.

Prague’s Jewish Quarter is not just full of history and culture – it is also a great place to shop! From luxury boutiques to small vintage stores, there’s something for everyone. Shop in the upscale Pařížská Street, with its glamorous designer stores, or get a unique Prague souvenir from one of the area’s many independent shops.

My wife and I relished the excellent shopping opportunities available here. Remember to get them to give you a VAT rebate form to get tax money back if you are visiting from outside Europe.

This area is just off Old Town Square if you want to see the 360 VR video tour and blog of this area.

Powder tower and Municipal House in Prague
Powder tower and Municipal House in Prague

Powder Tower

The Powder Tower, also known as the Powder Gate, is a historic and iconic landmark in Prague. Located in the center of the city, it is one of the original gates of the former fortified city walls and is an impressive sight to behold.

Tourists won’t want to miss this grand Gothic structure – it stands at 65 meters tall and is decorated with carved stone statues representing important figures from Bohemian history. Visitors can take a guided tour inside the tower for a more immersive experience.

Municipal House

Just around the corner from the majestic Powder Tower is the equally impressive Municipal House.

This historical building, constructed between 1905 and 1911, is an example of Art Nouveau architecture with stunning sculptures and decorations that showcase Czech culture. Inside, visitors can explore the beautiful interior and experience concerts, exhibitions, and conferences.

Jerusalem Synagogue

The Jerusalem Synagogue in Prague is an important historical site, located near Wenceslas Square. This synagogue was built in 1906 and is a stunning example Jewish architecture from the early 20th century. Inside, visitors can explore the building’s exquisite interior and be reminded of Prague’s vibrant Jewish culture.

State Opera House in Prague

The State Opera House in Prague is an amazing example of Baroque architecture. Founded in 1888, the opera house has seen countless classic operas performed on its stage, including Mozart’s Don Giovanni and Verdi’s La Traviata.

Its lavish interior includes richly decorated walls and ceilings, as well as baroque furnishings that make visitors feel as if they have stepped back into the 19th century. Visitors to the State Opera House can enjoy both performances and guided tours of the building – a perfect way to experience the history of Czech culture!

Narodni Museum

The Narodni Museum in Prague is a must-see for anyone interested in Czech culture and history. Founded in 1818, the museum is housed in a beautiful Neo-Renaissance building that was designed by architect Josef Schulz.

In my video, I start filming in the museum and walk out towards Wenceslas Square and statue.

Inside, visitors can explore its vast collections of historic artifacts from Czech national heritage, including paintings, sculptures and documents.

Outside, the museum’s grand facade is a stunning example of 19th-century architecture. Whether inside or out, the Narodni Museum offers an amazing glimpse into the history of Prague!

Statue of St. Wenceslas

The Statue of St. Wenceslas is a beloved symbol of Czech history and culture. The statue was erected in recognition of Saint Wenceslas, the patron saint of Bohemia, who served as Duke and King of Bohemia during the 10th century.

The sculpture itself is made from bronze and stands over twelve feet tall – an impressive sight to behold! As one of the most recognizable monuments in Prague, the Statue of St. Wenceslas is a powerful reminder of Czech heritage and pride.

The life of Saint Wenceslas (also known as Saint Vaclav or Good King Wenceslas) has long been shrouded in legend and mystery. Born in 907 AD, Wenceslas was the Duke of Bohemia from 921-935 and became the first King of Bohemia during his reign.

He is widely revered for his commitment to Christianity and his dedication to justice and maintaining peace among the people of Bohemia.

Wenceslas Square

Wenceslas Square is a major city square in Prague, situated at the center of New Town. Named in honor of Saint Wenceslas, the patron saint of Bohemia, the square has been a prominent public gathering place for centuries.

In my video I walk down the Square away from the statue.

Today, it is home to numerous shops and businesses, as well as some of the city’s most iconic monuments and attractions.

Visitors can explore the impressive neo-renaissance architecture around the square, admire the equestrian statue of Saint Wenceslas which stands guard over the area along with other statues honoring famous Czech figures from generations past, or simply take in one of Prague’s vibrant street performances or cafe culture.

The Dancing House in Prague

Located in the New Town area of Prague, The Dancing House (also known as Fred and Ginger) is a unique and iconic building that stands out against the traditional architecture found throughout the city. The house most notably features a curved top structure that gives it the illusion of two people dancing together – hence its nickname.

Visitors can also view several art exhibitions on the building’s lower levels or enjoy views from the rooftop terrace. Whether you’re an architecture enthusiast, curious onlooker, or simply looking for an amazing photo opportunity, The Dancing House is worth a visit!
