    (Translated by Google) This cathedral is the decoration of the Old Square. It is especially beautiful at Christmas, when a large fir tree is placed on the square and everything is beautifully illuminated. (Original) Этот собор является украшением Старой площади. Особенно он красив на Рождество, когда на площади ставят большую ель и все красиво подсвечивается.

    The beautiful monument to Svatopluk Bohemia stands in the gardens of the same name and is the work of my favorite Jan Štursa. The pedestal was created by the architect Pavel Janák. Unveiled in 1924, the Genius standing on a rock with an eagle hovers above the bronze master.

    Tyn Church is the most visible landmark of old town. It looks wonderful during the day and even better at night when it is lit up. Late in the evening after the crowds have gone, it looks like one of the Disney structures. The inside of the church is also very beautiful. Absolutely must see on your Prague visit.

    The handsome larger-than-life bronze statue dates from 1924. The sculptor Jan Štursa designed it as early as 1918. The pedestal was created by the architect Pavel Janák. The monument consists of a stone plinth, decorated with ribbons with a linden branch, and a statue of the poet in a walking suit with a book in one hand and a hat with a dressing gown in the other hand. Above the figure hovers a Genius, at whose feet is a crag with a sitting eagle.

    Once you reach the old town area the Church and its spires are one of the first things that you generally see. Looking around it is hard to see if there is an entrance. You need to go through a passageway in between the restaurants lining the Old Town Square at the base of the church. If you follow that to the end you end up at the entrance of the church. The church itself is quite beautiful on the inside. There is a path that goes around in an anti-clockwise direction so you circle the interior of the church. Just remember to put your phones on silent for people who are praying inside.

    Beautiful Church in Prague's Old Town Square. Visited Prague during Covid times which gave us to enjoy the crowd-free square and admire this marvelous church.

    The church that looks like a castle with its turrets and spires! It's almost haunting! It's the main church in the Old Town Square of Prague. Entry is free although it is customary to drop an offering. You're not allowed to take photos inside. Also, the church is closed on Sundays and Mondays. One interesting fact is the Danish astronomer Tycho Brahe is buried here.

    One of the best churches in Prague. A must-see located right in the centre. Spectacular main altar and side altars. Beautiful chapels, with a historic church organ. Especially beautiful at Christmastime with a lovely Nativity Scene, and numerous Christmas trees. A world-class choir sings at the 9.30am Sunday mass.

    It's really a great place to visit. My parents went here and they were amazed by the atmosphere and beauty of the structure. The church is so nice from inside and it's soo soothing in nature. Definitely it's tourist spot but the the whole surroundings is just awesome. My liked it a lot and definitely I will be going here soon and would love to interact with people there too.

    (Translated by Google) Gothic three-nave basilica, the main parish church of the Old Town with a tower height of 80 meters and where the vault of the main nave rises to a respectable 30 meters. The temple was built 160 years ago. Many prominent figures in history are buried here, today we would say VIP. One of them was Tycho Brahe, originally named Tyge Ottesen Brahe, a prominent Danish astronomer, astrologer and alchemist. Sometimes we see his name with the nickname de. He was a nobleman, but in his homeland the name was not presented in this form. Today, the temple is connected by a telephone operator's transmitter (it is located in the south tower). (Original) Gotická trojlodní bazilika, hlavní farní kostel Starého Města s výškou věže 80 metrů a kde klenba hlavní lodi se tyčí do úctyhodných 30 metrů. Chrám byl stavěn 160 let. Je zde pohřbeno mnoho význačných postav historie, dnes bychom řekli VIP. Jedním z nich byl Tycho Brahe, původním jménem Tyge Ottesen Brahe, význačný dánský astronom, astrolog a alchymista. Někdy jeho jméno vidíme s přídomkem de. On sice šlechtic byl, ale v jeho domovině se jméno v této podobě neprezentovalo. S dnešní dobou se chrám pojí vysílačem telefonního operátora (je umístěn v jižní věži).

    (Translated by Google) Prague has numerous other iconic monuments, such as the famous Charles Bridge. However, this majestic church, with those dark pointed towers, appeared as very picturesque. The effect was accentuated because it is surrounded by low houses. It has all the appearance of an enigmatic place and, therefore, so attractive. When I was admiring the landscape from the tower, I noticed that Our Lady of Týn was the only building with such characteristics within the district. It looked like something out of a detective novel or a thriller. All the info on my blog at elisanievas (.) Com (Original) Praga posee otros numerosos monumentos emblemáticos, tales como el famoso Puente de Carlos. Sin embargo, esta iglesia majestuosa, con esas torres en punta y sombrías, aparecía como muy pintoresca. El efecto se acentuaba porque está rodeada de casas bajas. Tiene todo el aspecto de un lugar enigmático y, por eso mismo, tan atractivo. Cuando admiraba el paisaje desde la torre, noté que Nuestra Señora de Týn era el único edificio con esas características dentro del distrito. Parecía salida de una novela policial o de un thriller.
