Overview
Speculum Alchemiae offers a rare window into the 16th-century world of Rudolf II, providing guests with the opportunity to see an authentic, preserved alchemical laboratory. Located at Haštalská 795/1, this UNESCO-listed building is one of the few historical structures to survive the large-scale demolition of Prague's Jewish quarter in the late 19th century. Visitors can see the spaces where alchemists once worked to create the Philosopher's Stone, manufacture gold, and develop the legendary elixir of eternal youth. The site retains a distinct atmosphere that connects modern visitors to the medieval search for nature's secrets and the historical link between early science and mysticism.
