Starting at the gorgeous Central Train Station from 1901, embark on a journey through Prague's Belle Epoque and Interwar Period, full of gorgeous facades, hidden shopping arcades and contrasting sceneries.


Through the tour, your guide will introduce you to the birth of modern aesthetics at the end of the 19th century, put the Prague Art Nouveau scene in the European context and paint the cultural and social background of the city in early 20th century. With many lavish Art Nouveau hidden gems along the way, the tour leads you to the Municipal House, Prague's most important project of this era.


Reaching the Na Příkopě Boulevard, you tourguide will show and explain the turbulent transition Prague architecture made in the 1910s, including Cubism as a style of architecture, unique to Czechia. Finally, you will reach the downtown area around Wenceslas Square, with stunning examples of 1920s Art Deco and the International Style, known for its slick minimalist designs.


Your learned and charismatic guide will engage you with insider descriptions, captivating storytelling and a folder stacked with pictures that will make you see the buildings in full context.


This is the perfect tour if you don't fear to miss out the "must-sees", if you already have been to Prague before and want to discover something alternative, or if you are in the city for a week and want to discover the hidden stuff along with the highlights.
