This gorgeous and historically important structure is simply a must do when you visit Prague. The Old Town Hall is located on the busy and diverse main town square, where the crowds can be quite oppressive. Note that the crowds get heavier near the top of each hour as people gather to view the astronomical clock presentation. Inside, you can purchase a ticket to go to the very top, where you will enjoy an incredible, panoramic view of Prague. Here are a couple of helpful hints. First, spring for the few extra bucks to take the elevator to the very top, skipping the stairs. You will save LOTS of time. Once you arrive at the top, go LEFT on the viewing platform, NOT TO THE RIGHT as the signs indicate. Slowly work your way counter clockwise around the tower and you will be treated to some of the best views you can imagine.

Another location that’s a must if you visit. It’s impossible to miss almost. When the clock strikes the crowds gather but worthwhile. The walk to the top is ramps, not stairs, with an add’l charge if you want to take the elevator. It’s well worth it for outstanding 360 views. Despite the crowds, most skip the climb and it wasn’t that busy or crowded up top.

The clock tower has a little 'show' each hour. It's very neat to watch, but it lasts less than a minute so set your expectations accordingly. Since there's so much to do & see in Old Town Square, it's easy to catch one of the clock shows. You do have to pay to go up into the Old Town Hall.

In the heart of the city this historical clock shows the time and seasons. On the hour a couple small doors open and the twelve apostles are shown passing by. This attracts quit a crowd on the hour

Visited this as part of the tour we were on. Amazing clock in the huge square with interesting historical buildings all around. Couldn't imagine how busy it would be in peak July/August as it was really busy when we visited in April which is supposed to be fairly quiet! A must see though whenever you visit.

A visit to the Old Town Square is a must when in Prague. It is the oldest and one of the most beautiful and historically significant squares of the city. Here you will find the Old Town Hall and famous Astonomical Clock, the Baroque Cathedral of St Nicholas, the Central Gallery with the Gothic Church of Our Lady before Tyn in the background, the National Gallery-Kinsky Palace, and a Monument dedicated to martyr Jan Hus in the middle. All deserve a visit. As you walk around you will also discover much more. Enjoy!

There is some climb up to the top of the Tower. But worth the view. Need to pay for a ticket. The ticket includes a tour of the underground. Do try to make it (check the timing and register your interest at the ticketing counter). I find it an eye opener to see the underground of Prague.

This is a must see while in Prague witness the crowds gathering in front or around the astronomical clock. Walk around old town, and explore shops, cafés, and the streets of old town. At the top of every hour the clock chimes, so make sure to get a good spot to witness this event.

Amazing! Very busy and can’t really get photo of whole thing. The clock is fascinating. We were lucky to arrive on hour so saw apostles going round, impressive workmanship. Certainly experience not to be missed.

To think this clock was build in 1410 and is the oldest clock in operation, it really amazes me. What a masterpiece of ingeneering. It shows the location of the Sun and Moon and the lunar phases. Be sure the visit the clock on the hour to experience the clocks and see the apostels come out.
