A must see experience and a beautiful wiev over the city. The Food is great and not too expensive
I thought it was cool. There was good views in all directions. I would recommend going on a nice clear day.
This thing is just ugly! A communist designed blight on a mostly beautiful city. I give it two stars just due to historical significance and sheer incongruity. And the babies; the nonsensical, incongruous addition of the babies crawling up the tower is just so surreal as to be mildly fascinating.
One of the tallest towers in Europe, very modern and with its antenna that looks like a space structure Unfortunately for obvious reasons the ascent is only up to the 4th floor, strictly by elevator, where in three rooms you can admire the Prague landscape from all the cardinal points relaxing There would be the 3rd floor a nice restaurant but the day I was there it was forbidden to go there for private party Price not affordable for having seen only 3 rooms that then on balance the 4th floor will be only 100m I think Beautiful futuristic architectural work with colorful lights at night and statues of infants hanging on the walls
I was visiting Prague end of April/early May 2025 won my partner. We were joined by his sister and her husband and explored the city and visited this tourist attraction. Pretty easy to get to using public transport. We arrived early so wasn’t too busy mainly just occupied by a school group. Some interesting bits and nice views. Interesting to see the art work of the babies crawling over the tower. Worth a visit.
Our experience was quite disappointing. When we arrived, we were told that payment was accepted only in cash. After going up to the observation deck, my wife and I couldn’t even have a normal conversation because a staff member was filming some kind of video report and asked us to stay quiet because we were “ruining the recording.” Later we went up to the tower restaurant to have a snack and a drink, only to find out that it was closed for a private event. Of course, nobody had warned visitors about this beforehand. The view itself is not particularly impressive, especially through the dirty windows, and the experience is definitely not worth the €15 ticket price. I would not recommend this place.
Visited in an evening and watched the sunset it was gorgeous. Amazing views and then watching the city come to life with lights after was very pretty.
The Žižkov TV Tower, a 216-meter high-tech giant built in 1992 between Žižkov and Vinohrady, challenges the Prague skyline with three slender pillars and futuristic style, created for radio-TV broadcasts during late communism. Ten giant infants by David Černý (Miminka Babies), each 3 meters high with barcoded faces, scale the bronze walls, symbolizing birth, future and criticism of consumerism. At 93 meters, 360° viewing platform and rotating restaurant offer breathtaking views of Prague; luxury hotels and gallery complete the alien experience. At the base of it is the Jewish cemetery of Žižkov, freely visible from the external gates To see!
Amazing views, the experience was unique and interesting, price was ok, the location was clean. Overall we really enjoyed our visit. It is very similar to the one in Berlin.
You get some great views from the observatory although not easy to see some of the more familiar bits on the ground. On the day we visited they were setting up for some kind of corporate event so was busy with staff and you were just in the way. Wasn’t any warning from the ticket desk.
