So if you
are walking in Prague, in Lesser Town (Malá Strana) and you want a powerful
dose of adrenaline you can just climb up to the top of the tower of Saint
Nicolas Church. 300 stairs, 80 meters high, cylindrical and narrow, the climb
might give you a hard time somewhere in the middle, but the view of Malá Strana,
of Old Town across the Vltava River, of the Charles Bridge, of Petřín Hill,
some of the Prague Castle and straight ahead the TV tower which sticks out like
an alien construction, deserves the uncomfortable minutes of climbing ;P.
And the
climb is starting
A little
bit of History …
The Saint
Nicolas Church is one the most famous baroque architecture buildings in Prague,
the whole construction was finished in 1752 and it lasted approximately hundred
years, built by three generations of great Baroque architects – father, son and
son-in-law – (Kryštof Dientzenhofer,
Kilián Ignác Dientzenhofer and Anselmo Lurago).
