Highlights

  • Attend a majestic organ concert in the Baroque Church of St. Francis of Assisi, a historic gem just steps away from Charles Bridge in the heart of Prague’s Old Town
  • Experience the beauty of the 1702 organ — one of the oldest in Prague — within an exceptional acoustic setting
  • A powerful one-hour program featuring Ave Maria, classical works, and sacred music performed by talented Czech musicians

Main description

Step into this sacred space where stone, silence, and sound intertwine. Accompanied by two musicians, the organist brings to life Czech and international masterpieces — from Bach to Mozart, from Gounod to Dvořák — in a timeless dialogue between heritage and emotion.

Dating back to 1702, the organ is the second oldest in Prague. Unusually positioned on the side of the church, it produces a unique and resonant sound. Arrive early to be greeted by two trumpeters on the church steps, opening the evening with a ceremonial flourish.

A moment of musical meditation in the heart of Prague — where architecture and music unite in perfect harmony.
