Prague will host a full day of events on Monday, November 17, 2025, to mark the Struggle for Freedom and Democracy Day and International Students’ Day.

Residents and visitors can attend a variety of free events across the city celebrating democracy, culture, and civic engagement.

Prague Traffic Hits Historic Highs as Roads Struggle to Keep Up

Prague’s roads are struggling under pressure like never before. Long traffic jams, frequent construction, and uncoordinated roadwork are pushing the city toward its transport limits, frustrating drivers and residents alike. Despite assurances from Deputy Mayor for Transport Zdeněk Hřib that the traffic situation has not worsened and that drivers avoiding public transport are largely to blame, analysts point to systemic issues in the city’s planning. Pavel Ryska of J&T Banka argues that the responsibility lies with politicians to manage the situation, rather than “wage an ideological battle with the people of Prague.” Recent data show that time spent in traffic has surged, with increases of tens of percent compared to previous years. “The economic costs are enormous,” says Ryska. “Lost work hours, delays to schools, hospitals, and meetings, stressed drivers, rising emissions, and slower emergency services—all are measurable impacts of gridlock.” He notes that these costs far outweigh any potential benefits of street narrowing, uncoordinated repairs, or underused bike lanes. The city’s leadership has faced mounting criticism, especially toward Hřib, whose detractors cite poor coordination, inadequate planning, and the city’s inability to handle increasing traffic loads. Hřib counters that drivers themselves are responsible for worsening congestion, opting for personal vehicles...

OneRepublic Announces Open-Air Concert in Prague Next Summer

American pop-rock band OneRepublic will return to Prague next summer as part of their “From Europe With Love Tour 2026.” The concert is scheduled for June 27, 2026, at Letňany Airport, marking the band’s first major open-air performance in Czechia. The announcement follows their sold-out 2025 show at the O2 Arena, where thousands of fans filled the venue for a night of global hits. This time, Ryan Tedder and his bandmates are promising an even larger-scale concert. Formed in Colorado Springs in the early 2000s, OneRepublic quickly became one of the most successful pop-rock bands in the world. The group—Ryan Tedder, Zach Filkins, Drew Brown, Brent Kutzle, Brian Willett, and Eddie Fisher—rose to fame with their 2007 debut album Dreaming Out Loud. Its breakout single, “Apologize,” sold more than 20 million copies and earned the band a Grammy nomination. Their 2009 follow-up, Waking Up, brought further chart success with “All the Right Moves,” “Secrets,” and “Good Life.” The band reached new heights with Native (2013), featuring the global anthem “Counting Stars,” which surpassed 40 million copies sold worldwide. Over nearly two decades, OneRepublic has amassed billions of streams across platforms and continued to evolve musically. Their 2021 album Human included...

Finally Open: Prague City Museum Returns After Five-Year Renovation

After more than five years of restoration work costing nearly CZK 300 million, the Prague City Museum on Florenc will reopen to the public on Saturday, December 6. The long-awaited return will feature a weekend program filled with family activities—and admission will be free for all visitors throughout the opening weekend. The museum’s centerpiece remains the Langweil Model of Prague, an extraordinary 19th-century miniature cityscape showing over 2,000 buildings across the Old Town, Lesser Town, and Hradčany. For the first time, the model will be displayed in twelve separate cases, allowing visitors to see even the smallest architectural details up close. The exhibition now blends historical artifacts with modern technology. Large-scale projections and interactive visuals will immerse guests in the city’s past, bringing Prague’s transformation to life on walls 22 meters long and five meters high. Museum officials say the experience rivals those in major museums abroad, combining history with digital storytelling. Visitors of all ages can also enjoy a variety of creative workshops and performances. Children will have the chance to make bird feeders and traditional Christmas decorations from the 19th century, while adults can attend puppet and music performances, author readings, and guided tours.

Prague City Plans Major 150 km of New Tram Lines

Prague is preparing for a major expansion of its tram network, aiming to double the city’s current rail lines over the next decades. According to the Prague Institute of Planning and Development (IPR), the metropolitan plan envisions up to 150 kilometers of new tram lines, linking underserved neighborhoods and relieving bus congestion across the capital. Some new lines are already in construction or final planning stages. The recent completion of the ceiling slab above the metro at Muzeum station has allowed work on the tracks that will connect Wenceslas Square with Vinohrady, strengthening central city connections. Several key suburban routes are under consideration, including lines to Bohnice, connecting through Kobylisy, and Suchdol, serving the Czech University of Life Sciences. Currently, these areas rely heavily on articulated buses, which trams could gradually replace. Another high-demand route is the southern tangent, stretching along Jeremenkova Street from Podolí to Pankrác. Additional tracks could continue from Malešice to Štěrboholy, complementing the gradual reconstruction of Metro Line C. A potential extension may reach Dlouhá mílí in Prague 6, alongside the airport line currently under planning. One of the more ambitious projects involves connecting Prague 6 and 8. Previously, a cable car over the Troja Basin...

Free to Pee: Prague Plans Citywide Access to Public Toilets

The Prague City Council has approved the first step in creating a new Concept for Accessible Public Toilets. It aims to ensure that residents and visitors can find clean, accessible restrooms across the capital without barriers. The initiative is being developed by the Institute for Planning and Development (IPR Prague), following research into both local needs and solutions adopted in other major cities. “We looked into what matters most to Prague residents when it comes to public toilets and how other cities handle the issue,” said Ondřej Boháč, director of IPR Prague. “Accessibility and cleanliness came out as the top priorities.” According to urban planners, an effective public toilet network would place restrooms within roughly 300 meters of any given point. Currently, only a small portion of the city meets that standard. For now, shopping centers remain the most popular choice for restroom access, largely due to their maintenance and cleanliness. Yet, there’s a key obstacle: most of these facilities require payment. That presents difficulties not only for people in financial hardship but also for the growing number of residents who no longer carry cash. To address this, the new concept will explore different operating models — including adapting existing...

Advent Lamplighter Returning to Charles Bridge on November 30

As in previous years, you will have a chance to meet the uniformed lamp-lighter on the Charles Bridge. From November 30 to December 23, 2025, he will light the historic gas lamps by hand each evening, beginning at around 4:00 p.m. near the Old Town Bridge Tower. Nowadays, the gas lights operate automatically, and Advent is the only time of the year when the gas lamps are lit up by a lamplighter. Street lighting in Prague dates back to 1847, which is the year when the first gas lamps were lit in this city. By 1940, nearly 9,000 gas lamps cast their bluish glow on the city. Gaslighting was used in Prague till 1985, when the eight-branched cast-iron lamps on Hradčanské square and in Loretánská street were converted for electric light. However, 2002 saw the return of gaslight to the city’s most historic areas. In 2010, gas lamps were placed on the Charles Bridge, which is the only gas-lit bridge in the world. Nowadays, you can admire romantic gaslighting on the whole Royal Route, from Powder Gate Tower to Hradčanské Square. The lamplighter Jan Žákovec is vice president of the Lamplighters’ Guild and head of the Gasworks Museum. At 205 cm, he is...

This New Rooftop Sculpture in Prague Is Sparking Debate

A new sculpture installed on a residential rooftop in Prague’s Podolí district has become one of the city’s most talked-about installations. The artwork, created by Czech sculptor Jakub Flejšar, depicts the legendary horse Šemík in an intimate act with a mare — a provocative reinterpretation of one of Czechia’s most famous myths. The sculpture, titled “Šemík Happy End,” was installed on Tuesday atop a modern residential complex near the Podolské schody. It was commissioned by developers Jiří and Petra Šald, founders of the Villa Gallery project. The couple, who designed the building as a blend of architecture and public art, say they wanted to give the legend of Šemík a new, playful ending. Flejšar, known for combining industrial materials with strong emotional themes, said his aim was to offer an “alternative storyline” to the classic legend of Šemík — the heroic horse who famously saved Lord Horymír by leaping from Vyšehrad into the Vltava River. “We’re naturally drawn to happy endings, though life rarely follows that path,” Flejšar explained. “This sculpture is about hope, renewal, and reimagining how stories could end differently.” Since its installation, the metal piece has become a local sensation. Residents have been gathering beneath the building,...

Okamura’s First Act in Office: Ukrainian Flag Taken Down from Chamber of Deputies

Newly elected Speaker of the Chamber of Deputies Tomio Okamura began his term by removing the Ukrainian flag from the lower house of Parliament. The flag, which had hung above the entrance since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, was taken down on Thursday afternoon on Okamura’s direct orders. The decision marks a clear break from his predecessor Markéta Pekarová Adamová, who had placed the flag as a gesture of solidarity with Ukraine. Okamura, leader of the far-right Freedom and Direct Democracy (SPD) party, assumed office on Wednesday after securing 107 votes in a secret ballot. Okamura’s election had been assured through a coalition agreement between ANO, SPD, and Motorists, who also secured two vice-chair positions for Patrik Nacher (ANO) and Jiří Barták (Motorists). While the Ukrainian flag is gone, three others remain flying on the Parliament building — those of Czechia, the European Union, and Israel. The Israeli flag has been displayed since the October 2023 Hamas attacks that killed more than 1,200 people. Ukrainian Flag Also Taken Down from the National Museum The removal follows a similar move by the National Museum in Prague, which recently took down the Ukrainian flag after nearly three years. It had...
