Pruhonice Park and Castle, classified as part of the Historic Centre of Prague - UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1992, is one of the crown jewels of the Czech Republic's national historical parks and an exceptional example of a European landscape park of this style.

Read moreThis is one of the best parks around Prague for a day visit with family or on your own. It was found in 1885, and now owned by the Botanical institute of Czech Republic. The area of the park is big, you can get a map when buying the entrance ticket and follow the tracks shown on the map - there are for example routes for 2.5, 5 and 10 km, but you can also walk less just following the paths. The park is really very well taken care of, and all paths are marked by signs, so it’s very difficult to get lost. It has a huge collection of plants (including exotic ones) and it is also a World Heritage Site. During spring-summer time which is more popular for walks in nature, one entry to the park for a day costs 80 Kc, in winter, price is less. They accept payments by card. There is paid parking available near the park - but payments by cash only. When the weather is good, the park is full of visitors. It’s very popular for family and tourists visits. There are several cafes and restaurants in Pruhonice, and a small cafe inside the park in case you want to grab some food or drink. I would definitely recommend to see it at least once, the area is really beautiful and walks there are very nice...
Read moreWe had terrible experience today 9.11.2024 at 17:20 at Pruhonice park. We lost at the park and came to the exit at 5:20 after closing the park. And the door before the main entrance was locked. On the page of the park we found the number of administrator. We called there and one women who had a shift this night answer the call. We asked her to open the door because we can't go out and it's very cold. She said that we have to come the main entrance. But how can we come to the main entrance when the door before is locked?! She said it's not her problem and she has a lot of job tonight and we can do whatever we want to do!!! Afterwards we called to police and they said the same,that we have to go to the main entrance which was not possible at all!! At the end we saw the light in one old apartment at the first floor. We knocked the windows and asked one old kind men to open the windows and let us go. Through his apartment we could go out. Thanks to him a lot. And the administration of the park has to take administrative action against this employee, as there was a threat...
