Download Prague Histories app for free
available soon for iOS download for Android
The App may differ from one platform to another due to the limitations of some Android devices. iOS App also provides magical compass.
When exploring the paths be thoughtful to others and aware of traffic. Thank you for your understanding!

The Prague Histories project is based on the experience of presenting historical content directly on-site where it originated. The person who participates in the project visits places within the number of thematic trails where the photographic or film documentation exists.

The (audio)visual recordings of historical events are presented precisely on the places where the photos or videos were taken. The app offers relevant text information and for newer and more powerful mobile devices also 3D objects.
