GPG: Ticket to Minority Friary

MINORITE MONASTERY OF ST. JAMES IN PRAGUE

The oldest Franciscan monastery in Central Europe.

Step beyond the tourist path and discover one of Prague’s most breathtaking treasures – the Minorite Monastery of St. James, a place where time stands still and history comes alive.

Hear amazing stories of monks, kings, saints, and mysterious events that took place here over the centuries.

Walk through the peaceful monastery, where friars once cared for the sick, taught, and lived a life of quiet devotion.

Step into the grand basilica, home to the largest pipe organ in the Czech Republic.

Don’t miss the rare opportunity to see the Exhibition of the Crown Jewels replica, displayed within the monastery as part of your visit – a dazzling reminder of Bohemian royal heritage.

THE CROWN JEWELS OF THE LUXEMBOURG MONARCHS (from 28.09.2025)

On display are exact scientific replicas, or facsimiles, created by goldsmith and jeweller Jiří Urban from Turnov and his team. 

Featured are:

• the Czech St. Wenceslas Crown, housed in St. Vitus Cathedral at Prague Castle; 
• the Crown of the Roman King from the treasury of Aachen Cathedral in Germany; 
• the Imperial Crown, the original of which is kept in the Hofburg Treasury in Vienna; 
• the Iron Crown of the Lombard Kings, permanently exhibited in the cathedral treasury in Monza, Italy.

This experience is not just a visit, it’s a journey through time, filled with beauty, mystery, and spiritual depth.
