Prague isn't just beautiful.

Prague Castle — Rudolf II's Court of Magic

25 min audio | 5 stops

5 episodes

Prague did not become Europe's alchemical capital by accident; Rudolf II turned imperial power into a laboratory. This walk follows the documented court of magic from the Kunstkammer at Prague Castle to Tycho and Kepler at Týn Church, Dee and Kelley at the palace, Faust House on Karlovo náměstí, and the Powder Tower's late-Gothic symbolism. Five stops through the moment when astronomy, alchemy, collecting, and statecraft shared the same rooms.
