Culture in Prague


divadlo
Even if you do not spend your whole life in this city it is certain that once you get a taste of it, you will always want to come back for more. Prague has been named the “Golden City” and pronounced since the Middle Ages to be one of the most beautiful cities in the world.

Artists, whose names are synonymous with European cultural heritage, such as Mozart, Beethoven, Dostoyevsky, Rodin, Apollinaire and Tchaikovsky, have praised Prague’s exceptional beauty and found in the streets a source of inspiration. The past millennium of human creativity is reflected in its monuments and buildings; you can find almost the entire range of architectural styles here. Roman, Gothic, Baroque, Renaissance, cubist, classical, art-nouveau and rococo pop up at every corner in the old city.

It is not by accident that the historical center of Prague has been listed in the UNESCO world cultural and national heritage register. The beauty of this city, however, does not derive only from its architecture. In essence, the reason that it haunts the back of our minds is that it is a perfect place to perceive constant change, to sense how fluid time is. Prague is a cosmopolitan city that perfectly combines the old-world with the new.
