One of the most striking sights of late-Gothic Prague, dating from 1475, is a monumental gateway to the Old Town through which the coronation processions of Czech kings entered the city. The Powder Tower, which once served as a storehouse for gunpowder, still marks the coronation or royal route to Prague Castle.
The observation walkway is 44 meters high.
