Every hour on the hour, the carillon of the collegiate church at Vyšehrad rings out. The church has undergone numerous structural changes since it was built 950 years ago. The last structural change was completed in 1903, giving the church its current neo-Gothic appearance. The interior is richly decorated with ornaments and Art Nouveau wall paintings depicting figures. The church's treasury houses a permanent exhibition of jewelry and valuable fabrics.

The previous church served as the burial place of Vratislav, who was the first Bohemian ruler to achieve royal dignity in 1085, as well as his descendants. The current one was rebuilt in Gothic style in 1249, later rebuilt in Baroque style, and from 1885 added in neo-Gothic style (including the towers). The ornamental and figural Art Nouveau wall paintings by the painter couple František Urban and Marie Urbanová-Zahradnická from 1902 are beautiful, graceful and intimate.
