Klementinum in the Old Town
The Klementinum is the largest, and one of the most historic complex of buildings in the Old Town of Prague.

the Klementinum has enjoyed a rich architectural evolution. Many great astronomers, scientists, musicians and philosophers have worked here, influencing the development of the buildings.

St. George's Basilica at Prague Castle
St. George's Basilica was founded by Prince Vratislav (915-921). This is the best preserved Romanesque church in Prague and the oldest church building in the Prague Castle complex.

St. Nicholas Church at the Old Town Square
Beautiful St. Nicholas Church dominates one corner of the Old Town Square. For many visitors to Prague, this will be the foremost church they remember. Designed by Kilian Ignaz Dientzenhofer, St. Nicholas was
completed in 1735. Its lovely white facade, decorated with sculptures by Antonín Braun, simply gleams, hit by the sun during the day and lit by strong white lights at night.

Bertramka Mozart Museum
In 1787, shortly before the premiere of Don Giovanni at the Estates Theatre in Prague, Mozart withdrew to Bertramka to finish his opera. Bertramka was the romantic summer residence of his friends, the Dušeks. In 1791 he returned for his coronation opera on Titus. From April to September Bertramka presents classical concerts, some with a "living history" element, where performers re-enact days from the 18th century in period costume.
