Prague is very beautiful, very interesting, lots to do, to see. Rich in history and culture. The astronomical clock, A very interesting fun day out / few hours. We had a very nice tour guide she gave us all lots of information before you take the clock tower tour. Easy to find, to get too. The clock and clock tower was stunning, very interesting history and amazing design, the views from the clock tower were amazing. Me and my girlfriend recommend this tour and area to visit.

We were given a personal guide who gave us a fantastic insight to the astronomical clock with its history and what we could see. The very same guide met us at the castle and again gave a very good history and present idea of what happened and happens at the castle now. Would highly recommend this tour to others heading to Prague.

I memtioned that the Audio guide was included... turns out no. We have to pay for that. Really sad. I already payed more for that to get the Ticket plus Audio guide... I don't like to just run through the buildings and don't understand everything. Not everybody speeks english fluently.

Prague's Astronomical Clock: an ageless masterpiece of time I was enchanted by my visit to the Prague Astronomical Clock! This ancient mechanism is more than just a clock: it is a true masterpiece of medieval engineering and a symbol of the city. The spectacle that presents itself every hour is simply magical. The animated figures, intricate dials and the sound of the carillon create a unique atmosphere that transports you back in time. I really appreciated the chance to admire this extraordinary piece of history up close and discover its symbolic meanings. The Prague Astronomical Clock is a must-see for anyone visiting the city. I highly recommend witnessing the show at least once during your stay.

The lady at the clock was so full of knowledge and explained every so well. Very impressed with her. Got given good insight at the castles into how to be at the different areas at less crowded times which was good

A timeless journey exploring Prague's Astronomical Clock Tower

Begin your journey with an assistant familiarizing you with the rich history of the Old Town Hall and the Astronomical Clock Tower during a 20-minute introduction. Following this, skip the long queues and enter the majestic Clock Tower. Admire the clock’s allegorical figures symbolizing humanity's vices and virtues, including a skeleton for Death and an angel for purity. It also features figures representing vanity, greed, and lust. Notice the astronomical dial displaying the Sun and Moon’s positions, along with stars and zodiac signs. From the top of the tower, the twisty streets and charming squares of Prague unfold before you. Enjoy breathtaking panoramic views of Old Town Square and the Tyn Cathedral.

A virtual tour with an online audio guide

Delve deeper into the historical significance of the surroundings, guided by a comprehensive online audio guide available in six languages: English, German, Spanish, French, Italian, and Czech.

In revenge, he damaged the clock, leaving it unrepairable for years!
