Explore Loreto, a Baroque pilgrimage site steps from Prague Castle. Walk the cloister and its chapels, admire the painted ceilings, and see the collection of liturgical objects.
Full description
Loreto is a Baroque pilgrimage destination in the Hradčany district, centred on a church, a cloister with six chapels, a clock tower and a collection of rare liturgical objects. Visitors point to the painted ceilings, frescoes and golden Baroque detailing as the main visual draws, along with the courtyard.
The crypt is not open to the public, and a 3D version is shown upstairs instead. It sits close to the castle, so it fits naturally into a Hradčany morning.
