    The Strahov Monastery, in Czech „Strahovský klášter“, is one of the oldest and most significant monasteries in Prague. It is located on Strahov Hill near Prague Castle and was founded in 1140 by the Premonstratensians. The monastery remains an important place for religion, culture, and history to this day.

    The monastery is particularly known for its impressive historical library halls. The Philosophical and Theological Libraries are magnificently equipped with ceiling frescoes, valuable books, and historical manuscripts. The library is one of the most beautiful historical libraries in Europe.

    In winter it should be noted that the cobblestones are very slippery and you may have to walk very slowly.
