Prague Astronomical Clock: Entry Ticket + Introduction + Optional Audio Guide
About this experience
Start with a 20-minute introduction about the history and main information on the tower, so once you get there, it will feel like you know the place.
Then, skip the ticket line and head straight to the turnstiles to visit the Gothic clock tower on your own.
Every hour, two small trapdoors open and the twelve apostles march out to tell their stories. The Grim Reaper also rings a bell, checking to see whose time has come (unsurprisingly, everyone shakes their heads 'no').
There are also planetary motion, the zodiac, and more on the clock - and 75% of its parts are original, like 'from-the-15th-century' original.
Take the stairs or an elevator up the tower. From there, you'll have amazing views over the Old Town Square and the rest of Prague's Old Town.

HMBotel notes for choosing your ticket
Compare the inclusions above with your plans: admission, a guided visit and a combination ticket may cover different services. The venue name alone is not enough to compare them.
Check the meeting point and arrival instructions before adding another activity. The displayed duration describes the activity; plan travel from your hotel and your return separately.
Booking and payment take place with Tiqets. On that final page, confirm the date, participants, visit language, final price and cancellation rules; an indicative HMBotel price is not a guarantee of availability.
