This tour mainly delves into streets that most tourists never get to know in Prague, in the most charming and silent alleys, the true hidden gems of the Czech capital.
Throughout the tour we will discover some of the most important civil buildings and medieval churches in Prague, their stories and legends. The headquarters of the University of Prague, the oldest in Central Europe, and its majestic chapel. The Stone Bell House, where they say Emperor Charles IV was born, the monarch who had grandiose Gothic buildings built in Prague and made it the capital of reference during his reign. The Bethlehem Chapel, from where Master Jan Hus created the first great Reformation of the medieval Church.
We will also pass through the city's old medieval markets, some still active, and the remaining remains of the old wall. We will learn who fought in the famous Hussite Wars, the religious conflict that marked the course of the kingdom of Bohemia, and we will pass by the only medieval synagogue that remains standing, where we will learn about the harsh history of the Jews of Prague, the prejudices against them and the episodes of violence that devastated the neighborhood where they lived.
All this through hidden passages and alleys, where our guides will make this tour an unforgettable visit that will undoubtedly immerse you in the era and take you far beyond the four typical places that everyone sees.
