Hiking

The distinctive Old Town Bridge Tower (Staroměstská mostecká věž) has been guarding the entrance to Prague's Old Town district for over 600 years. It also serves as a gateway to the historic Charles Bridge, which spans the Vltava River at this point. Marvel at the Gothic Old Town Bridge Tower in all its architectural glory. The balcony also offers a fantastic view.

Hiking

The Old Town Bridge Tower is one of the most impressive Gothic structures in the world. Emperor Charles IV had the tower built together with the bridge according to the designs of Peter Parler in the middle of the 14th century. The gate to the Old Town was simultaneously conceived as a symbolic triumphal arch, which Czech kings passed through on their Royal Route. To enjoy the unforgettable view, you have to climb 138 stairs to the gallery.
