Overview
Located in Prague 1, the Church of Sts. Simon and Jude provides a unique intersection of musical history and Baroque visual splendor. Originally established as a hospital chapel in the mid-14th century, the structure was later transformed into a High Baroque masterpiece, featuring elaborate sculptural decorations by Ferdinand Maxmilián Brokoff and stunning illusionist paintings by Josef Hager. Today, the venue is under the stewardship of the Prague Symphony Orchestra, which utilizes the space for a variety of concerts. Music lovers will be particularly drawn to the site due to its original organ, an instrument once played by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and Joseph Haydn. Whether you are attending a performance during the Prague Spring festival or simply visiting the space, the church offers an intimate encounter with a storied past.
