Speculum Alchemiae

We stumbled across this wonderful place by chance and it turned out to be one of the best things we did. Our tour guide was exceptionally knowledgeable and was great at answering all of our questions. The history, along with the myths and theories of this hidden place are astonishing. A complete must if you’re ever visiting Prague!

Fairly interesting building and lovely guide. Unfortunately the place has been turned into a sort of amusement park for new age enthusiasts (with fake sounds and lights, lots of non original objects as decoration). Very hard to get a feeling of what is original and what is an invention for tourists, except for the actual walls and maybe the furnace.

A historical place to visit. The Royals used Alchemy to better their lives even in the face of opposition of the church. The place still retains it's old look and infrastructure. The guide, Daniella spoke good English, was friendly and knew her subject well. A small place to visit but definitely a must-do when in Prague

This old building has its own, fascinating story. It tells the story of the old alchemist. You should definitely check this place out!

This is, where you find the real Alchemy. An undergroud laboratory behind a secret door. Explore and enjoy! The friendly Ladies behind the desk will happily show you the way.
