St. Nicholas Church
The Church of Saint Nicholas is a Baroque church in the Lesser Town. It was built between 1704-1755. It has been described as the most impressive example of Prague Baroque and without doubt the greatest Baroque church in Prague.
The church excels also in the decoration, mainly with the frescos by Jan Lukas Kracker and a fresco inside dome by František Xaver Palko. The interior is further decorated with sculptures by František Ignác Platzer. The Baroque organ has over 4,000 pipes up to six metres in length and was played by Mozart in 1787 ( read more )
