Discover the beauty and history of Prague's sacred monuments that have shaped the city's character for centuries. This book is an essential guide for all lovers of architecture and history who want to learn not only about the famous churches but also about the lesser-known temples and synagogues of Prague.

Sacred architecture holds an irreplaceable place in Prague's millennial history and is among its most significant tourist attractions. The publication "Prague Churches and Temples" offers not only a rich art-historical overview of the most important sites, but also of the less frequented yet equally remarkable sacred buildings. You will find Christian churches as well as notable synagogues, which together create a diverse mosaic of Prague's spiritual and cultural heritage.

The texts provide detailed introductions to the history and significance of individual buildings, often supplemented with references to historical literature and other sources that convey the life and atmosphere of these places. An extensive pictorial section, composed not only of photographs of interiors and exteriors but also of historical illustrations and vedute, makes the reading even more engaging and visually attractive.
