We invite you to a famous organ concert at St. Francis of Assisi Church. Thanks to unique dramaturgy and high artistic level, these Prague classical concerts, offering an hour of beautiful classical music, are an unforgettable experience!

Listen to festive fanfare played by two trumpeters in stylized costumes on the heraldic trumpets thirty minutes before the concert's beginning at the church's staircase.

St. Francis of Assisi Church's organ is the second oldest in Prague, built-in 1702. Many famous personalities, such as W. A. Mozart, A. Dvorak, and J. Seger, played this unique musical instrument, which was recently sensibly repaired.
