My TIP

Wear comfortable shoes, there are 286 steps to the top of the tower. But the effort is worth it.

Explore Great South Tower

The Great South Tower of St. Vitus Cathedral in Prague Castle is a must-visit for those seeking breathtaking views of the city. Standing tall at almost 100 meters, this tower offers a unique perspective of Prague and its iconic castle complex. Climbing over 280 steps, visitors will encounter seven bells, including the largest bell in the Czech Republic – Zikmund, dating back to 1549. Don't miss out on this opportunity to soak in the beauty of Prague from above!

Interesting facts

The Zikmund bell was purchased as a replacement for the Patron bell, which burst during the great fire of Prague Castle and the Lesser Town in 1541.
