    Not particularly impressive, as far as historic European religious sites go. I didn’t realize until I was there, that the whole top floor is renovated and therefore contemporary and unoriginal. You can see an original chapel, and that’s about it. You can hear the carillon, but you can’t go up there either. A lot of fees, too…in addition to the ticket fee, there is a fee to take photos, and another fee to use the bathroom. Plus the gift shop lady was really pushy. The whole thing just felt very touristy and like they were trying to get every koruna out of me that they could. It didn’t have the sacred, tranquil feeling I expect in these types of places. If you are actually a Christian seeking spiritual experiences in Prague, this is definitely not the place for it.

    (Translated by Google) One of the beautiful stops in Prague full of history. A place where there are not so many tourists. As a candy, he visits a jewelry store with beautiful exhibits. Possibility of card payment and photography. (Original) Jedna z krasnych zastavek v Praze plna historie. Misto, kde neni az tak moc turistu. Jako bonbonek navsteva klenotnice s nadhernymi exponaty. Moznost platby kartou a foceni.

    Why do you need to pay when you want to take a picture? 1. Nice place with nice decorations. 2. Nice exhibits, kind of different from the exhibits we see in different places. 3. It is pretty pricey comparing to other attractions. 4. Though it is a little bit pricey, it worth your visit.

    (Translated by Google) Loretta is a church complex in the heart of Hradcany (located behind the Prague Palace Complex), I am very pleased to have found this tourist and mostly religious "pearl" in the heart of the Old Town ... Here is a little more information ... .Currently (7.10.2020) the ticket price is 180 Czech crowns (or about 7- 7.30 euros). , for photos with a camera there is an additional 100 Czech crowns (I took a few photos with a phone and there was no problem) there is a brochure with short descriptions of the object ... The Loretta complex was built on the idea and with the funds of Countess von Lubkovic, as a place of worship for the Virgin Mary. And why is it called Loretta ... There is an old Catholic legend according to which the house of the Virgin Mary in Nazareth was miraculously brought by angels in .Loreto Italy, to be saved from the pagans.Thus was originally built the chapel (1628-31) which has a built-in support beam and several bricks from the Italian original.Thus began the popularization of the legend of Santa Casa in the Czech Republic.Later around the holy house is built walls decorated with scenes from the Old Testament and the life of the Virgin Mary. Later, the Church of the Nativity was built, whose baroque tower has 30 bells, which were cast in Amsterdam. The complex also has a treasury, mostly religious objects, among which stands out a gift box called "Prague Sun" - which was made in Vienna between 1696-99 and has 6222 precious stones. Loretta is remarkable, you have to pay due attention to it, because there are many other interesting sculptures, frescoes, maps and chapels for worship. (Original) Лорета е църковен комплекс в сърцето на Храдчани ( намира се зад Пражкия дворцов комплекс), много съм доволна че открих тази туристическа и най вече религиозна ,,перла,,, в сърцето на Стария град... Ето и малко повече информация....В момента (7.10.2020 г) цената на билета е 180 чешки крони ( или около 7- 7,30 евро). ,за снимки с фотоапарат се доплаща още 100 чешки крони ( аз направих няколко снимки с телефон и нямаше проблем) има брошура с кратки описания за обекта... Комплексът Лорета е построен по идея и със средствата на графиня фон Любкович ,като място за поклонение към Дева Мария.А защо се нарича Лорета...Има стара католическата легенда според която къщата на Дева Мария в Назарет е била чудодейно принесена от ангели в гр.Лорето Италия,зада бъде спасена от езичниците.Така първоначално е бил построен параклисът ( 1628-31 г.) в който има вградена подпорна греда и няколко тухли от италианския оригинал.Така започва популяризирането на легендата за Санта Каса в Чехия.По късно около светата къща се изграждат стени украсени със сцени от Стария завет и живота на Дева Мария.По късно е построена и църквата ,,Рождество Христово,,, чиято барокова кула има 30 камбани , които са отлети в Амстердам. Комплексът разполага и със съкровищница, най- вече религиозни предмети,сред които се откроява дарохранителница наречена,,Пражко слънце,,, - която е направена във Виена между 1696-99 години и има 6222 скъпоценни камъни. Лорета е забележителна , трябва да ѝ отделите подобаващо внимание , защото има много други интересни скулптури, фрески , карти и параклиси за поклонение.

    We liked the hotel. It's situated in the historical part of Prague, and costs not very much. Interiors are great, interesting, and everything is clean. The breakfast was great, rich choice of food. And very pleasant lady at the reception made us feeling so comfortable we didn't want go away. Definitely will stay there again and recommend it our friends.

    When spending time in Hradcany District, there are several very good places to visit, one being the Loreta Monastery and Treasury where you can see a handful of impressive attractions. The Baroque style palace was commissioned by the Lobkowicz family in 1626 and includes a nicely decorated cloister, with impressive frescos, which we found to be a pleasant surprise and one of the more enjoyable aspects of Loretta. The inside courtyard also features the Santa Casa "Holy House" - a highly decorative brick structure that encompasses a hut that was designed on what is believed to be a copy of the house of Virgin Mary. The inside is simple and worth passing through, it takes only a minute or two to see. There are a handful of chapels within the courtyard, one being the beautiful Church of Nativity of Our Lord, which features lovely Renaissance paintings, very nice cherubs and saints and other Rococo style fixtures. It is an elaborately decorated church, well worth a sit down to enjoy. This chapel, completed in 1738, was one of our favourite features of the Loreta Monastery and Treasury. Another important attraction is the upstairs treasury which displays priceless pieces, the most famous being the 6222 diamond studded object known as the 'Prague Sun'. While this was interesting to see, we didn't find it to be as spectacular as it is often built up to be in the guidebooks. Note that every hour, the 27-bell carillon begins to play as a call to prayer. While this can be also be easily heard from outside Loreta, hearing the chimes within the walls of the courtyard is a different acoustic experience, and definitely enhances the visitation here. Overall, we quite enjoyed our visit to Loreta. The treasury was less memorable than we anticipated however the cloister frescos and the Church of Nativity of Our Lord Chapel, exceeded our expectations and made this a much appreciated compound, a place we would very much enjoy seeing again during future trips to Prague. Overall, we spent around an hour and 30 minutes at Loreta but you could certainly spend less time if you were in a hurry. Tip: Loreta is located near the Stravhov Monastery, and can be coupled with a visit to Loreta to maximise time spent in this area of Prague.

    A beautiful church near the Strohav Monastery and Prague Castle. Entrance fee isn't too high, but like many places you have to separately purchase photo permission to take photos. If you like churches, then this is definitely a must see.

    (Translated by Google) This place of pilgrimage for the cult of Mary houses a copy of the "Santa Casa" as well as a Baroque Church of the Nativity surrounded by a cloister and several chapels. The bell tower contains a carillon with 27 bells that play the tune of "We greet you, O you Notre-Dame" (every hour from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.). We should also mention the Lorette Treasure, a collection of cult objects dating from the 14th to 18th centuries, the centerpiece of which is the famous monstrance adorned with 6,222 diamonds. (Original) Ce lieu de pèlerinage du culte de Marie abrite une copie de la « Santa Casa » ainsi qu’une église baroque de la Nativité entourée d’un cloître et de plusieurs chapelles. Le clocher contient un carillon à 27 clochettes qui jouent l’air de « Nous te saluons, ô toi Notre-Dame » (toutes les heures de 9 h à 18 h). Mentionnons également le trésor de Lorette, un ensemble d’objets de culte datant du XIVe au XVIIIe siècle, et dont la pièce maîtresse est le célèbre ostensoir orné de 6 222 diamants.

    Beautiful and worth to visit. There is much to see inside, so consider that you will spend at minimum one hour. I would give 5 stars, however let's talk about the price: The ticket itself is not expensive but you would pay extra 250czk (10€) if you would like to take pictures and get an audio guide. Plus 15czk if you want to use the toilet. Plus a "service fee" if you would buy tickets online. It's a bit ridiculous and it makes the church look greedy, which is a shame. All in all a recommended place to visit, just a bit expensive though.

  • 1/5 A A. 1 year ago on Google
    We did not go in due to the outrageously high entrance fees, which, however, is greatly discounted for the hordes of invading Ukrainians arriving in new BMW and Mercedes SUVs but not for the Czech citizens. Loreta consists of a cloister, church of the Lord’s Birth, the Santa Casa and a clock tower with a chimes. The construction started in 1626. The architect was the Italian Giovanni Orsi, and the project was financed by Kateřina Benigna, a noblewoman of the Lobkowicz family. Later, the place was surrounded by cloisters, to which an upper story was added a by Kilián Ignác Dientzenhofer in 1740. The baroque facade was designed by the architects Christoph Dientzenhofer and Kilian Ignaz Dientzenhofer, and added at the beginning of the 18th century. The chapel is most known for its chimes, heard since August 15, 1695. It was constructed during 1694 by watchmaker Peter Neumann from thirty smaller and larger bells. Today the building also houses a large collection of liturgical tools, mainly monstrances.

    Beautiful church if you like churches (and even if you don't). One could appreciate the crafmanship without any prior knowledge. Lots of religious artifacts which will be more interesting to someone who is interested in religion. The entrance fee was outrageously expensive for what it is. They also take a hefty photo fee. There are quite a few things in Prague you may want to see before that.

    Visited on Sunday, very quiet which is ideal to get away from the busy streets of central Prague. We travelled by Tram and got off a few stops after the castle, although you can walk to the castle and beyond using the steps up the hill. Wonderful, beautiful location and a very affordable ticket price. Worth the visit for sure as not far from the city centre. Tickets can be bought at the entrance and local cafes nearby are great with fantastic service and hospitality.

    Loreta is gorgeous inside and out. The stairs in the garden are very aesthetic. Every detail is beautiful. Loreta consists of a cloister, the church of the Lord’s Birth, the Santa Casa and a clock tower with a famous chime. The construction started in 1626 and was finished in 1931. The architect is Italian Giovanni Orsi. The baroque façade was designed and added years later by architects Christoph Dientzenhofer and Kilian Ignaz Dientzenhofer.

    This was a nice place to visit. Not too overcrowded, nice views of the church. I only spent about 30 minutes or so here. I was a bit disappointed as I paid extra to get a photo pass but people who had not purchased this were just taking photos anyway and theres no regulation of it so I wasted my money!

  • 4/5 Stef O. 4 years ago on Google
    it was good to have a quiet place to pray, but i don't understand why the Blessed Sacrament was in a small modernist minimalist side chapel and not in the church itself. otherwise this is a great place to visit if you haven't seen the original in Loreto, Italy, or even if you have. the exhibits were also fascinating. loved the live video showing how the carillon bells were played.

    Although a little further out of the city centre, Loreto is absolutely worth visiting, as it offers a combination of stunning architecture, beautiful iconography and an opportunity for some quiet reflection. The admission is reasonable considering the historical significance and quality of the exhibitions. Highly recommended.

    (Translated by Google) A monastery that you must see while in Prague. A beautiful church in which there is not even a centimeter of free or empty space, amazing altars in the arcades in the courtyard and unparalleled anywhere else confessionals outside, partly built into the wall. And on the first floor there is a treasury with, among others, beautiful monstrances and lots of other precious objects of religious worship. Admission is CZK 170 plus CZK 100 for a photography permit. (Original) Klasztor,ktory należy koniecznie zobaczyć będąc w Pradze .

    (Translated by Google) Because it's divine, the carillon now plays more tunes and could be heard more often during the holidays thanks to ongoing guided tours The place has a great atmosphere and an interesting exhibition on the history of the Capuchins and the construction of the monastery, chapels, church and bell tower. There is also a Capuchin treasure and an exact replica of a recently discovered crypt. (Original) Protože je boží, zvonkohra nyní hraje více melodií a ve sváteční čas ji bylo možno slyšet častěji díky probíhajícím komentovaným prohlídkám Místo má skvělou atmosféru a zajímavou expozici o historii kapucínů a stavbě kláštera,kaplí,kostela a Zvonkohry. Nechybí ani kapucínský poklad a přesná replika nedávno objevené krypty.

    Interesting, especially if you are passionate about objects of worship, which are the main exhibits. Many of them are of a special beauty, carefully worked. In the inner courtyard is a very beautiful little chapel, which looks like a copy of the Holy House in Loreto, Italy.

    A famous church near Prague Castle. The church and surrounding cloisters are not the most spectacular site in Prague’s Castle District, but it is worth visiting if you have time. There is a replica of a chapel of the Holy House in Loreto Italy, which is oddly done on the inside, with even cracks in the walls being replicated. The exterior of this chapel is decorated with statuary. The church is an impressive Rococo work, and the surrounding cloisters are also worth viewing. On the upper levels of the cloisters are the treasures of the Loreta, which include many golden monstrances. Parts of this monastery may be slightly off-putting to non-religious visitors at times, but if one has an interest in such things, this is well worth a visit.

    Very nice place with a fantastic Treasure chamber. Definitely worth the price for the entry. You have to pay 100 CZK to take pictures but it's definitely worth it

    A set of monasteries with monks and nuns currently living inside. 1. It's a pilgrimage place for Orthodox faithfuls. The sarcophagus below is well worth visit 2. For foreign tourist they require you to join a guided tour (fees required) 3. In my opinion the tour is not worth as the nuns don't give much information about the saints. You can enter without guide if you know where the entrance is, which is located at the lower levels of the complex.

    The place is impressive mainly from the outside, but not interesting by its content, as the exhibitions are mostly of Christian subjects. We came to see the diamonds, but it simply was not that interesting...

  • 5/5 Pieter G. 1 year ago on Google
    Both the director and the curator have made this into a really pretty museum and a place of piece and quiet within this bustling city. The build up and displays are informative and interesting. Certainly worth a visit in my opinion!

  • 3/5 Kacper B. 1 year ago on Google
    It is pricey (120 CZK student, compared to 125 CZK for the castle...). You can get in, but the sights were not that impressive to be honest. If you are not religious - it may be not an offer for you.

  • 4/5 Jaykumar K. 1 year ago on Google
    Good view, good for photography. Nearest Garden was also beautiful and good portraits and architecture can be captured. I would recommend to go early in the morning as it's little bit busy and crowded place during the daytime.

    A place full of mystery with an introduction to the most sacred Christian experience The House of Nazareth, a birthplace of the Christian and European religion that we should not forget.

    Take the audio guide. It makes a difference. Recommended.

  • 5/5 Elizabeth R. 1 year ago on Google
    Obsessed with this place - quiet, beautiful, little surprises around each corner. Really recommend spending 45mins-1hr here just taking it all in. It's like a little hidden courtyard with lots of artefacts and a BEAUTIFUL church on site. If you're around the castle area, I highly recommend a stroll around!

  • 5/5 Katarzyna C. 1 year ago on Google
    It's really amazing art and architecture. It's definitely worth visiting, there's not many tourists inside, and the place offers you peace and quiet. The ticket was 210 crowns per adult, plus an additional 100 czk if you wish to take pictures.

    The Loreta. As the story goes, a mother had 27 children. She got one silver coin for each child when it died. She brought all children to the Loreta. As she herself was dying in front of the famous building all the bells suddenly started raining to praise her passing into heaven. The bells ring every hour from 10-5. The building is a replica of the holy House in Italy. Audio tours are scheduled daily. It's worth the visit.

    Loreta is a pilgrimage destination in Hradčany, a district of Prague, Czech Republic. It consists of a cloister, the church of the Lord’s Birth, the Santa Casa and a clock tower with a famous chime The chapel is most known for its peal, heard since August 15, 1695. It was constructed during 1694 by watchmaker Peter Neumann from thirty smaller and larger bells. Today the building also houses a large collection of liturgical tools, mainly monstrances. Exhibitions are occasionally held on the first floor of the cloister. We spent an hour there, staff is very nice and helpful.

    Absolutely stunning building, well worth a visit. Please note that you have to pay an extra charge in order to take photographs.

    it is very beautifull and full of history. I recommend viewing it, as it is very big and with pretty views and also frescoes are good qualities. just be carefull because they charge photographing for 100€ and if you are a student you pay less with isic card

    The Loreto is included as part of the Prague Cool Pass. We were initially not going to visit it because it was quite far from where we were staying. However, we were sightsighting and before we knew it, we strolled pretty close to Loreto and decided to visit. We are very glad we did because the church was very beautiful. You can tell there was a lot of history behind the walls. Definitely visit if you're ever in Prague. The history is quite fascinating.
