Even older than St Vitus Cathedral is St George’s Basilica within Prague Castle. Its striking red baroque facade liven up the square against the imposing St Vitus. The buildings contain the main basilica as well as a convent and a monastery. You won’t be seeing any nuns today at St George’s, instead is part of the National Gallery showcasing Bohemian art. Inside lies tombs of very important figures from Bohemian history. In some evenings, classical concerts are held within the chapel. It’s actually quite unique to climb up the hill into the oldest church in an medieval castle to hear great music.

The old sir inside who should help people in the entrance is very very rude. I saw him embarrassing a woman who was understanding how to use the ticket. Saying things like: "this is not your country".
This red colored building is located right behind the St. Vitus Cathedral. This is the oldest surviving church within the Prague Castle. Dated back to 920, this church is founded by Prince Vratislav and later enlarged in 973. Today Romanesque style is built in 1142, following the devastated fire. And the Baroque facade that we see today is added in the late 17th century.
Beautiful.
A gorgeous building surrounded by no-less amazing places. Make sure to visit it at least once.
Just history
Interesting area to wander.
Small but nice.
