Prague Castle

Prague Castle is a vast historic castle complex on a hill overlooking the city of Prague that serves as the official residence and workplace of the president of the Czech Republic. The complex includes St. Vitus Cathedral, palaces, churches, gardens and defensive towers and has developed over more than a millennium into a continuous ensemble of many architectural styles.

The shape it held in its prime.

A hilltop complex dominated by the dark, vertically emphasised Gothic mass of St. Vitus Cathedral with its twin stone spires and a copper-green tower rising above a long sweep of pale, multi-storey palace wings with red clay tile roofs. Curtain walls, bastions and scattered defensive towers step down the slope into terraces and formal gardens; narrow lanes and rows of smaller red-roofed houses cluster against the castle base. Masonry ranges from dark ashlar at the cathedral to light plastered stone on palace façades.
