Best Prague Astronomical Clock Day Trips & Things to Do

This medieval astronomical clock that dates back to 1410 is the third oldest astronomical clock in the world and the oldest still working. The Prague Astronomical Clock, located at the Old Town Hall Tower, is one of Prague’s and Europe’s best known attractions where every hour, on the hour crowds gather to witness this magnificent spectacle when Death rings a bell and inverts his hourglass, and the 12 Apostles parade past the windows above the clock, nodding to the crowd. At the finale, a cock crows and the hour is rung.
