Old Town Hall Prague 1

Staroměstská radnice

The Old Town Hall (Czech: Staroměstská radnice) is a historical complex of buildings of the Prague municipality, including a 56-meter tower with the Astronomical Clock (the so-called Prague Orloj), a chapel with a bay window and five houses.

Initially the buildings served only as the municipality of the Old Town (“Stare Mesto” in Czech), but later the Town Hall became the municipality of all Prague.

The astronomical clock in the Town Hall tower is one of the city’s most popular attractions.

The wedding ceremony at the Old Town Hall in Prague is remarkable for the charm of the historical heart of the city.

Wedding ceremonies are held in the wedding hall, located on the second floor of the town hall, accompanied by the sounds of a real organ. The ceremony is conducted by the vice-mayor of the Prague 1 city district in the presence of an official translator.

The extraordinary ancient atmosphere of the Town Hall and the congratulations of numerous tourists from different countries at the end of the ceremony will remain forever in your memory.

A wedding in the old town hall is very popular for a number of reasons:

  1. This is a very beautiful registry office and the price matches, which means it is a budget option for marriage in Prague, not much more expensive than a regular registry office, but you get that very medieval atmosphere and a great place for a photo shoot.
  2. This is the very center of Prague – there is no more central! This means that all your guests can easily get to your wedding venue and you will not have to spend additional money on transfers for guests.
  3. This is a tourist center – there are a lot of tourists there and during the season, when you leave the Town Hall, you will be greeted by a crowd clapping and congratulating you, which gives the event special emotions and delight. At these moments, it seems that everyone in the square has come just for you!
  4. If you ordered a photo session, then you do not need to spend the time paid to the photographer on the trip and you fully use his time for photography.
  5. Very often, the couple and guests prefer to stay in this location, regardless of the location of the ceremony, but due to the fact that almost all the sights of Prague are within walking distance from this place. And if you need to get somewhere, you will be pleasantly surprised by public transport.

Due to the popularity of this ceremony place, take into account that you need to book your wedding date well in advance, otherwise there may not be the date that interests you. We recommend booking no later than six months in advance.
