Church of Our Lady Before Tyn

posted by gmull on 20 July 2011 at 09:47

This wonderfully spiky church is pretty imposing and there's so much to see it's incredible. Ornate is the word, with Gothic influences outside and Baroque ones inside. Look out for Tycho Brahe's grave, the altar and two blocked-off windows on the southern wall, where once Franz Kafka looked in as a child from his house!

Old-New Synagogue

posted by dirnak on 19 January 2011 at 10:40

The oldest Synagogue in Europe isn't something you can pass up visiting is it? Amazing architecture, really striking, and inside you can still see the red banner (a bit tattered these days) from the Roman Emperor Ferdinand III in the 1600s!

Nove Mesto

The National Museum is really riveting, I love the minerals best for their colours, as well as the zoologica exhibits. The building itself is well worth looking round as the interior is just as impressive as the exterior.

Powder Gate

posted by kgregory on 26 October 2010 at 17:00

The Powder Gate dates back as far as the 11th century - though I'm not sure when its current incarnation dates from. It sits at the start of the royal route and is an entrance to the Old Town. The views from the 44 metre high viewing platform are absolutely wonderful. Like other old buildings around Prague, the spidery Gothic facade is emphasised by a coating of soot!

Dancing House

posted by whahn on 26 October 2010 at 16:55

Frank Gehry's dancing house is one of the best pieces of modern architecture I've ever seen... or perhaps worst, I'm not sure. Either way, it certainly left an impression. The contrast with the rest of the city- which at times feels chocolate boxy in its antiquity - is quite extraordinary. There is no perspective, no obvious reference and certainly no reverence for the rest of the city. Great!
