Message from Alexane

The Basilica of St. Peter and St. Paul is a cool neo-Gothic church located in the Vyšehrad fortress. Built between 1887 and 1903, this church has some impressive features like a stone mosaic above the entrance and twin towers that stand tall on a hill overlooking the Vltava River. Inside, you'll find a mix of Gothic, art nouveau, and Baroque elements, with intricate carvings, stained glass windows depicting Jesus in different churches, and ornate decorations covering every inch of the walls and ceilings. Plus, the church is surrounded by a large park and cemetery where famous Czechs like Karel Čapek and Antonín Dvořák are buried.
