It is the most important temple in the Czech Republic, with a south tower 96.5 meters high, where the coronation insignia are kept.

From afar, its soaring spires dominate the city skyline, announcing a monumental experience. The interior of St. Vitus, Wenceslas, and Adalbert Cathedral is a festival of light filtering through stained glass, painting colorful patterns on stone columns and floors. The immense space is intimidating yet invites quiet reflection on the centuries of history that rest here. It is the absolute heart of Prague's spirituality and architecture, from which it is hard to tear your eyes away.
