Simple Discoveries

You can enter the cathedral for free, but are limited to where you can explore (which can be remedied with one of the Prague Castle Passes). Amazing gothic architecture inside & out.

Tatyana Bunakova

One of my favorite places in Prague. An amazing cathedral , especially after 8 pm (in summer) with this gorgeous illumination. Love the details.

Adam Palmer

They let you into the building for free to experience the main hall in all its glory, definitely worth a trip inside. The entrance to the observation tower is to the right of the building.

Hannah Parvaz

A huge and grand building. You can enter and explore the beginnings of the space, but gave to pay 180c to go any further.

Beautiful cathedral , inside and outside! The ticket includes entrance to more sightseeings than the St. Vitus Cathedral . Don’t miss the golden lane!

This beautiful Roman Catholic cathedral within the Prague Castle is a must-see. Aside from the amazing rose window and towering spires, also don't miss the Crown Chamber and the Royal Crypt.

Alexandra W.F

impressive cathedral , architecture awesome and inside many side altars and beautiful ancient windows to discover, could only be enjoyed if there are not a lot of tourists inside

Alina S

Magnificent architecture ! To see the beauty of the Prague city you have to buy a 150-CZK-ticket and climb 287 steps to the top of the Cathedral . Promise, it's worth it.

Ana Timofei

One of the most impressive cathedrals I have ever seen!! The details are so complex and the colors! Interior and exterior are both stunning.

Oleg Aldekein

Climb up the tower for 150 kronas, it worth the effort! ❤️

Although construction started in 1344, Prague’s top church was finished in 1929 for the 1,000th Jubilee anniversary of St. Wenceslas .

Pay for the whole Prague castle Route A or B. It is the cheapest option to see all awesome places. Save (at least) 3hours of your time. Castle 's map costs 50CZK.

Nataša Pejić

Probably the best architectural work I have ever seen! I was speechless! And I still am. If you don't visit it, you have no idea what you are missing.

Beautiful! Its gothic architecture makes you feel like you're in a Harry Potter movie !

The most beautiful stained glass I've seen anywhere in the world. And I've been to a lot of cathedrals . Too many.

Make sure to buy a ticket at the tourist info before standing in line to get in. Inside the cathedral there is no possibility to buy one.

Murat

So beautiful and so impressive on the outside. lnside, limited to see, but still so impressive again. There is always line .

Chad Hembree

I was lucky enough to get to perform in the cathedral . After which my wife and I were granted access to the organ . What an amazing instrument.

Amit Gaharwar

One of the best churches in Europe! Probably better than Norte dame of Paris as well . Ornate and grand!

Great cathedral , must see in Prague. Strange visiting hours changing everyday

Taste of Prague

Type in "Jeleni prikop" and go. In 5 mins, you'll be wondering why are you almost alone in this magical valley below the castle enjoying the combination of nature and architecture .

St. Vitus Cathedral is the largest and the most important temple in Prague. Apart from religious services the coronations of Czech kings and queens also took place in here.

Basic entrance is free! You don't need a ticket to get in, just if you want to see all parts of the Cathedral .
