St Nicholas Bell Tower unveils new-look exhibition

Prague, 5 October 2026 – The St Nicholas Bell Tower has unveiled a revamped exhibition entitled Guardian of Safety, developed in collaboration with prominent figures from Prague’s creative community. Opening to the public on 6 October, the exhibition explores the tower’s role in Czech history and introduces a new interactive feature that lets visitors play a recording of the St Nicholas bell. Weighing more than 300 kilograms, the bell was used from the 16th century onwards to summon Lesser Town residents to mass and warn them of disasters. A new audio guide, narrated in Czech by actress Antonie Formanová and in English by musician and producer Charlie One, also tells the stories behind the tower’s history. The landmark attracts tens of thousands of visitors from the Czech Republic and abroad each year.
