Understand the palace's place in ecclesiastical history.
Visit the site to learn about the administrative importance of the archbishops in Prague.
Overview
The Archbishop Palace, located at Hradčanské náměstí 56/16, acts as a primary institutional anchor in the Prague Castle District. Since 1562, it has operated as the official residence and administrative base for the Archbishops of Prague. While the interior is generally restricted from daily public access, the building remains a vital stop for those interested in architectural history due to its exquisite Rococo façade. Visitors can appreciate the stucco reliefs, the archbishop's coat of arms, and the balanced rhythmic arrangement of the exterior structure at any time. When the palace does open for special occasions, such as the Night of Churches or the Open Garden Weekend, it provides a rare opportunity to enter the ceremonial halls and private chapel spaces. Because access is highly limited, visitors should check official tourism resources or local archdiocese websites well in advance to confirm if any special opening events align with their visit.
