Overview
Opatství Emauzy, located at Vyšehradská 320/49, provides a rare opportunity to step back into Prague's medieval history within an active Benedictine environment. Visitors can explore the ground-floor historical rooms, which feature remarkably preserved 14th-century frescoes, and visit the Abbey Church of Our Lady. The site is best suited for those who appreciate self-guided discovery, as it provides an intimate look at monastic architecture away from the heaviest tourist corridors. Guests may also browse the reception area for monastic literature, historical guides, and wine sourced from the Rajhradské klášterní winery. Because the monastery remains a functioning site, visitors are reminded that professional photography and filming require prior administration approval.
