Downloadable Audio Tour Guide for Prague - Charles Bridge to Old Town Square

Prague is a 'city of memory' and everywhere its buildings reflect a rich, eventful history from Romanesque art to the Baroque, testimony to the influence of the Habsburg rulers of Bohemia. Great poets and writers have lived here from Chateaubriand to Franz Kafka and Milan Kundera. The fabric of Prague is woven with history and legend while monuments and styles juxtapose dazzling the visitor with their beauty.

This tour will lead you from the famous Charles Bridge to Old Town Square, providing you with information on numerous sites in between. Ten centuries of history are concentrated here, resulting in an interesting mixture of architectural styles. Medieval, Renaissance and Baroque are all present in this district.

You'll begin your walk in Mala Strana, on the left bank of the river Vltava, where you will cross the Charles Bridge, one of the most beautiful bridges in Europe. You'll learn about this extraordinary architectural work by Peter Parler (who is also responsible for the splendor of St. Vitus Cathedral). Take the time to carefully observe the statues along the bridge: gesticulating, impassioned, even excessive, but ultimately fascinating.

You will then reach the Square of the Knights of the Cross, on the other bank, which marks the entrance into the Old Town quarter. From there, you will walk into Karlova Street and reach Bethlehem Square. Its tranquil atmosphere, away from the crowds of visitors, provides you with the ideal opportunity to learn about Jan Hus, a legendary figure in the history of Bohemia, and a symbol of Czech resistance over the ages.
