More information

St. Vitus Cathedral is the most stunning and iconic church in Prague, standing tall within the grounds of Prague Castle. Its soaring spires and intricate stained-glass windows dominate the city skyline, inviting visitors to discover an impressive fusion of Gothic architecture and Bohemian heritage. Whether you are drawn by faith, history, or art, this cathedral is an essential stop on any Prague itinerary.

A Remarkable Past

The story of the cathedral begins in the 14th century when Charles IV commissioned its construction as a symbol of both religious devotion and royal power. Over nearly six centuries, builders and artists from across Europe left their mark, creating a space filled with chapels, tombs, and awe-inspiring artworks. Today, it serves as the spiritual heart of the Czech nation and a testament to centuries of craftsmanship.

Best Time to Visit

The cathedral welcomes visitors year-round, but spring and autumn tend to offer the most pleasant weather and smaller crowds. Early morning visits provide a quieter, more contemplative atmosphere, while late afternoon brings a magical light through the windows.

What can you see inside?

Inside, you'll find magnificent stained glass by celebrated Czech artists, the royal mausoleum, and the Crown Jewels Chamber, along with breathtaking stone carvings and the soaring nave. Don’t miss the panoramic views from the Great South Tower!

Is there an entrance fee?

The main area of the cathedral is free to enter, but access to certain chapels, the crypt, and the tower requires a ticket. Guided tours can help you discover hidden details and stories you might otherwise miss.
