St Vitus Cathedral is just one of Prague’s finest landmarks but be sure to visit it when you’re in Prague. It is the largest and most important church in the Czech Republic and I think its fair to say that the Chapel of St Wenceslas most outstanding piece of the cathedral.

Peter Parler built the chapel between 1344 and 1364. Coronations of the Czech kings and queens took place in St. Vitus Cathedral and the tomb of St Wenceslas can be found here.

The Cathedral is brilliantly decorated with over 1300 semi precious stones of many varieties and paintings of the Passion of Christ can be seen all around the cathedral. The lights going through the colored windows in St Vitus Cathedral highlight many sacred motives. Make sure you get to take a look at the window designed by Alfons Mucha, the representative of Art Nouveau.

Expanding up from the center of Prague Castle, the cathedral takes over the Prague skyline. Tourists can climb 297 steps up the souring tower where they will see the largest church bell in Eastern Europe

St Vitus Cathedral is one of the best examples of Gothic architecture in Prague and cannot be missed.
