Overview

Dear friends!
Let me invite you on a guided tour of the Strahov Monastery
and Library to learn about its tumultuous history . Discover the treasures of one of the most important places of worship in
Prague!
I will lead you on a fascinating journey through the Hradčany district, beginning at the elegant Hradčany Square, surrounded by historic Baroque architecture. You'll pass the iconic Prague Castle complex and the stunning Loreto pilgrimage site.
At the Strahov Monastery, skip-the-line access allows you to immerse yourself in the world-famous Strahov Library,
home to the Theological and Philosophical Halls, renowned for their frescoed ceilings and ornate woodwork, collection of manuscripts and Bibles.
We will also visit to the Strahov Gallery, one of the oldest and most valuable monastery collections in Central Europe.
