I found the clock wonderful but to pick our tickets up was hard if we did not have a sat nav it would have been a night mare. I was looking for a blue and white umbreller not a sign on the wall.

We liked having a guide who explained a little of the history of the Old Town Square. The only hitch was finding the place to exchange tickets, as it's in a small street behind the clock. So not easy to find. But otherwise very good.

Amazing guide. So knowledgeable and easy going. Really gave us some interesting insight and engaging. Sort of guide you wish you could take everywhere you travel as he explains the history, architecture and more so well! Thank you.

Esperienza molto bella, peccato non aver trovato spiegazioni in italiano ma in quasi tutte le altre lingue. Sicuramente un viaggio che consiglio di fare!

Your Experience

Get your tickets in front of the Astronomical Clock on Old Town Square. Here you'll be intimated with the history of the Gothic structure. You'll learn about its fascinating stories and significance in 20 minutes. With all the information you need, you'll skip the line and head to the famous 600-year-old marvel. Once you enter the medieval structure, you'll explore how it tells the time, provides the date, shows astronomical and zodiacal information through its parts. Most of these parts are centuries old and have been meticulously maintained over the years.

Every hour 2 small trapdoors open from which 12 apostles march out, regaling their stories in a 'Walk of the Apostles'. The statues come to life. Among them, you'll hear the Grim Reaper ringing a bell - an animated tradition to check whose time has come. At the landmark, you'll get a chance to take the stairs or the elevator up the tower and witness the spectacular skyline of the City of a Hundred Spires.
