What to do and see in Prague, Bohemia: The Best Art Galleries
The bohemian allure and fairytale features of Prague make it a perfect destination for beach-weary vacationers who want to immerse themselves in culture. You could devote an entire day to exploring Prazsky hrad (Prague Castle), then refueling over a hearty dinner at a classic Czech tavern. Spend some time wandering the Old Town Square before heading over to gape at The Old Town Hall and Astronomical Clock. Prague’s best bars are found in cellars, where historic pubs set the scene for a night of traditional tippling.

I first came across Bel Art Gallery while visiting Prague in 2018 & what a treat it was! I couldn’t resist buying one of their exquisite ceramic angels which they had featured in the shop window. I love it so much that I simply had to return on my next trip in 2019 to add to my collection! My dealing with the owner couldn’t have been better & my in-store experience there is one of the highlights of my trip. He went to such incredible lengths to package this delicate object so that it would travel safely back to Germany with me! With current COVID restrictions, unfortunately, I haven’t been back there since but I wanted to purchase a few more of these pieces as gifts but this time from afar. From start to finish I can only rave about my experience. The turnaround was very quick and I was so impressed with how meticulously & carefully they were all packaged. They even constructed a special wooden crate to ensure that the box was robust enough to protect all three angels! It took quite a while to get through all the intricate layers of bubble wrap but it was so worth the wait! And everything in perfect condition too! Whether you are in Prague in person or wish to buy online, you will be in the very best of hands! Although that said, I do hope to get back there in person again soon!!

Gallery of Steel Figures is an interactive and original exhibition in the centre of Prague. Our steel figures are inspired by characters from cartoons, sci-fi, fantasy, fairytales, pop culture as well as animals and hits from the automotive world. You can touch, climb in and sit on all the figurines and of course, take pictures with your favourite superheroes or childhood friends. And the good part is, all exhibits are made from recycled steel parts! Which means, we managed to make scrap and metal waste into art! We exhibit over 100 figures on 1200 m² and two floors in a beautiful art noveau building in the historical centre of Prague. If you get tired, you can rest at our café on the 1st floor and have a cup of coffee, homemade lemonade or a delicious fresh pizza. We also offer a large selection of original souvenirs for you to bring back home. We hope to welcome you soon!

This is a really fun, hands-on gallery of life sized metal sculptures including cars, bikes, movie and cartoon characters. They let you sit and climb and pose with everything including the Iron Throne and Thor’s hammer. This is definitely the most fun I’ve had in a gallery maybe ever. I’d imagine kids would love this.

Local artist working in her own gallery. She shows her unique colored pencil technique and presens her works and products from her publishing house from postcards to large format prints.
Reviewed By michaelafree
When you visit Old Town Square, take a moment to duck into one of the passageways and visit Marie Brožová's gallery. This is a must if you have kids with you but her art equally speaks to the child within and will remind you of all the magical moments you experienced years ago. This is also the perfect place in Prague to buy a gift for children or well-tested color pencils for any aspiring artist. Marie's world of fantasy opens many interesting conversations between couples and friends, this is where you learn what your lover or spouse's inner child really likes.

If you want to visit Narodni Gallery Praha you need to know in advance what you want to see because there are several locations. We chose to visit Trade Fair Palace. It's a little far from the city centre and the hotel where we were staying, but we got there easily using the tram. The building that houses the museum was built in the early 20th century and rebuilt with difficulty after a massive fire in 1974. The interior space has wide openings and an indoor elevator, overlooking this space, connects the floors. Collections are organized very professionally, during periods and current, offering the public works from the mid-1700s to the present. It was a delight to discover the outstanding works of many Czech artists that I did not know about until this visit. When we visited the Galleries, a temporary exhibition was dedicated to Alberto Giacometti. It was a real privilege to admire so many of the artist's creations gathered in one place. For art lovers, Narodni Galerie Gallery is an outstanding place.
10. Troja Chateau
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 273 reviews
Troja Château echoes the opulent Roman suburban villas and thanks to its location and vast gardens offers easily reachable rest from the hectic city centre. The construction of the early Baroque château began in 1679 and the project was executed by an architect of French origin, Jean Baptiste Mathey. The sculptural decoration of the two-armed staircase leading to the garden was entrusted to the Dresden artists Georg and Paul Hermanns. This monumental sculptures symbolize the Titans fighting the Classical gods, allegories of periods of the day and year and allegories of continents. The Flemish painters Abraham and Isk Godyns were summoned to execute the illusive decoration of the large main hall. Troja Château and its gardens also hosts short-term exhibitions of contemporary art which are adapted to the specific character of the space.
