Explore Prague Castle

Prague Castle is one of the city's most famous landmarks, offering an impressive mix of historic buildings, courtyards and architecture overlooking the Vltava River.

The complex includes St Vitus Cathedral, the Old Royal Palace and Golden Lane, making it an excellent choice for supporters interested in Prague's history.

The castle grounds remain open until 22:00, but historic buildings close at 16:00 during November, so arrive earlier if you want to explore inside.

Walk across Charles Bridge

Charles Bridge is one of Prague's most recognisable sights and an ideal stop while exploring the historic city centre.

Built between the 14th and early 15th centuries, the pedestrian bridge is lined with statues and connects the Old Town with the Lesser Town, providing memorable views of the river and Prague Castle.

It is particularly atmospheric in the early morning or after dark, making it an easy addition to any sightseeing itinerary.

Visit Old Town Square and the Astronomical Clock

Old Town Square is at the heart of historic Prague, surrounded by colourful buildings, cafes and notable architectural landmarks.

The main attraction is the Astronomical Clock on the Old Town Hall, which dates back to 1410 and draws visitors for its hourly procession of the Twelve Apostles.

Supporters can also explore the surrounding streets, stop for traditional Czech food or climb the Old Town Hall tower for panoramic views across the city.

Take in the views from Petrin Tower

For one of Prague's best viewpoints, head to Petrin Tower and its observation tower, which was inspired by the Eiffel Tower and opened in 1891.

The tower stands 63.5 metres tall and offers sweeping views across Prague from its elevated position.

It is open daily from 10am to 18:00 in November, making it a good option for supporters with time to spare during the day.

The walk up the hill can be steep in places, so allow extra time if you plan to explore on foot.

Enjoy traditional Czech beer at U Fleku

For Arsenal supporters wanting to experience Prague's famous beer culture, U Fleku is one of the city's best-known historic pubs.

The venue dates back to 1499 and combines a traditional Czech restaurant with its own brewery, serving house-brewed dark lager alongside classic Czech dishes.

Its historic halls and lively atmosphere make it a great place to spend time with fellow fans while sampling local food and drink.

Located on Kremencova Street in Prague's New Town, U Fleku is also within reach of the historic centre, making it a convenient stop after a day of sightseeing.

The venue is open daily from 10am to 23:00, although checking its official website before visiting is advisable.
