About this experience
As twilight falls over Prague, the ancient legends and ghosts of mysterious past events come to life in the city. In a mystical costume, I will guide you through the deserted streets of the Old Town into a mysterious world where alchemists and witches, ghosts and the legendary Golem, the inhabitant of the Jewish Quarter, hold sway. On our walk, you will discover the dark side of Prague and see Charles Bridge, Old Town Square, and narrow cobblestone streets in a different light...
What to Expect
Legends and stories of old Prague
We will walk through the Old Town, where ancient history intertwines with legends and speculations. You will learn where the scariest ghost of Prague resides, where medieval executions took place, and what passions boiled in the Jewish Quarter in the 16th century. I will tell you the legend of the construction of Charles Bridge and narrate the story of the legendary Golem, a clay creation that long protected the Prague Jews.
The era of Prague alchemists
Let's talk about the reign of King Rudolf II, who engaged in occult sciences and invited alchemists and astrologers from all over the world to the city. I will tell you about the life and experiments of the famous Danish alchemist and astrologer Tycho Brahe, who sought the elixir of life. You will see the place where an ancient alchemical laboratory was discovered, learn what the Prague alchemists did here, and how superstitious townspeople treated them.
