RENAISSANCE PRAGUE + MANNERISTIC PRAGUE (late 16th century – early 17th century)

While exploring the city you will be impressed by beautiful decoration and arcades of houses and palaces built in the Renaissance style. Renaissance was brought to Prague from Italy, and was developed by Rudolf II Habsburg, who loved art, alchemy, astrology and astronomy. His passion for art created Mannerism – one of the most fascinating art and architecture styles in all history, which can be found only in 3 countries in Europe, one of which being Prague – so don’t miss it during your stay!
