Church of Our Lady Victorious — Infant Jesus of Prague
Visit the small but world‑famous Church housing the Infant Jesus of Prague statue — a quiet, contemplative stop with strong local devotion and ornate interiors.
Tips from local experts:

- Souvenir tip: small devotional medals are available at the church shop for a meaningful memento to exchange as a couple.
Funicular ride to Petřín Hill — a short scenic ascent

Tips from local experts:
