About
Each spring, Open House Praha unlocks dozens of Prague buildings that normally stay closed: palaces, embassies, monasteries, old waterworks, stadiums and new apartment blocks. Families wander in, follow volunteer guides and poke around spaces most locals never see. The festival also runs a children's program, so younger visitors get their own way in. Best for curious kids who like exploring; toddlers may tire of the lines at the most popular buildings.
