Program details

A guided stroll around the gems of the lesser town. Put on your walking shoes and visit the Mala Strana, also known as the lesser or small town, one of Prague’s most picturesque districts. Best visited on foot due to its beautiful but narrow cobbled streets, this guided walking tour will give you an in depth insight into some of the architectural gems of the area.

Located a short walk across the river from the old town, the Mala Strana nestles in the shadows of Prague castle. It dates right back to the eighth century although a war in the 15th century and a subsequent fire in the 16th century devastated all of what was once a market settlement. Today the feel of the place is distinctly Baroque as many Italian artists settled here and participated in the construction of palaces and churches.



At the heart of the district is the Malostranske Namesti Square from which cobbled streets lead off into a maze of quaint shops, bars and restaurants. Don’t forget to bring some money to sample some of the local delights or buy some traditional souvenirs on your way round. Aside from this, the tour gives you the opportunity to admire some of the majestic palaces not to mention the terrace of the famous Strahov Monastery from where you can enjoy stunning views over the Lesser town and Prague. A visit to the Church of Our Lady of Victoria offers you the chance to see the Infant Jesus of Prague and a display of 80 historical outfits one of which was hand made by Maria Teresa. The tour also takes in the Baroque Church of San Nicolas with its awe-inspiring frescos, paintings and statues.
