Where is the market inside the castle?

On St George's Square, behind St Vitus Cathedral, and in the Stable Courtyard. You can walk in from U Prašného mostu street, and it is a few steps from Golden Lane.

Do we need a castle ticket to visit the market?

No. The courtyards and St George's Square are open to walk through. You only need a ticket to go inside the paid castle buildings.

What you need to know

Free to walk in, the stalls sit in the castle's open courtyards, so no castle ticket is needed to browse
Food on the spot, with trdelník, ham and mulled wine stalls, so you don't have to leave the grounds to eat
A cold hilltop in winter, so dress kids warmer than you would for Old Town, and expect cobblestones under stroller wheels

About

Each winter, wooden market stalls fill St George's Square and the Stable Courtyard inside Prague Castle, right beside St Vitus Cathedral. Kids can wander between craft stands and food stalls, warm up with trdelník (the rolled sweet pastry) and look up at Gothic spires lit for Christmas. It is smaller than the Old Town markets and easier to pair with a castle walk. Expect crowds on weekend afternoons.
