Wonderfully ornate and impressive baroque church in Old Town Prague within easy walking distance of Old Town Square. This church is free to visit but it does close during the day from 12 noon to 2 PM so avoid these times.

I think this is the most beautiful church in Prague. I attended Sunday mass here and they had a beautiful Oregon playing which enhanced the experience. The frescoes and statues that are doing this church or not to be missed also there is a little side chapel in the back which is a very peaceful place for prayer.

We are awed by the expansive and impressive sculptures, drawings and frescos in the church. The guide then pointed us to the withered mummified hand hanging at the top of the church entrance. Legend said that the hands came from the thief who had stolen from the church.

This massive three-aisled basilica with a long, high chancel is the third longest church building in Prague. The church was founded in 1232, and was rebuilt in Baroque style in the 18th century. The choir is home to an organ dated back to 1705. The Basilica of St James is currently also the venue for organ concerts. The famous St James’ organ has 4 manuals, 91 speaking stops and 8,277 pipes.

Solemn church in the Old Town, perfect place for prayer and meditation. Tourists must respect that this is a fully functioning place of worship and behave with proper decorum.

A super beautiful church on the inside and also very detailed sculptures on the wall-work outside. Definitely worth a visit if you are into churches and buildings.

Such a beautiful place. You could walk passed it and miss it. The detail inside is amazing, a place you must visit whilst in Prague.
