The Story of the Prague Castle
The permanent exhibition The Story of Prague Castle offers a view of more than thousand years' history of Prague Castle.
The exhibition tells the story of the main castle complex in the country and the people connected with it - from the rulers and presidents to the aristocrats, courtiers, famous artists, builders, architects, scholars, tradesmen and servants. It is a story of a complex that conceals the mystery of the last place of rest of the most important Bohemian rulers and saints, a place that houses the Czech crown jewels and the St Vitus treasury, but also a place that serves as the dignified seat of the head of the Czech Republic.
Where you can find the exposition:
The exposition can be found in Old Royal Palace, on its gothical floor. You can get there from the 3rd Courtyard or from St. George's Square.
Opening hours:
9 a.m. to 4 p.m. in winter season (1. 11. - 31. 3.)
9 a.m. to 6 p.m. in summer season (1. 4. - 31. 10.)
