Charles Bridge

Charles Bridge is an energetically charged place. Charles the Fourth himself thought so, laying the first stone on a very special date. We will not only admire the mystical beauty of the bridge, but we will also discuss the most interesting facts about it. And what about making a wish?

We will stay away from the crowd. Let's find ourselves in the quiet courtyard of the Jesuits collegium, which is the place created by very dangerous people. What secrets do the walls of Klementinum keep? What role did the Jesuit order play in the history of Prague? We will definitely talk about all of this.

Every day, hundreds of people come to see the short appearance of the apostles' statues from the small window on the top of the clock.
