- Charles Bridge - Charles Bridge is the monument that most represents the city of Prague in the world and is a large medieval work of 515 meters in length. Its two entrances are protected by beautiful gothic towers, one of which is even divided into esoteric planes superimposed on each other, from the material one (linked to the planet earth), to the astral one (the moon), the spiritual one (the sun). and divine (the universe). For further protection of the bridge there are some palindromes, one of which is numerical and derived from the exact time and date of the deposition of the first stone. Its mainly baroque statues, according to the Jesuits who began to finance them, had to recreate the evocative atmosphere of the Sant’Angelo bridge in Rome. We will talk about some of the most famous legends of the bridge, starting from that of St. John of Nepomuk, from that of the “Bruncvik” or the hidden Templar treasure. The crossing of the Vltava represents the change of alchemical phase and the entry into the albedo.

This is the follow-up to the ‘Bohemian Kings’ Prague Walking Tour. If you’re new to Symbolika tours, it’s advised that you register for the first part first. Make sure not to skip the sequel, where themes of alchemy, magic, astrology, the Rosicrucians, the Codex Gigas (Devil’s Bible), and the Voynich code are explored, along with the individuals who made Prague their home and the court at the close of the 16th and start of the 17th century, including figures like Sendivogius, Maier, Hajek, Rudolf II, Arcimboldo, John Dee, Edward Kelley, Giordano Bruno, Tycho de Brahe, and Kepler! Our journey starts at the Charles Bridge in Mala Strana, heading towards the climax of the white phase within the castle, where we step into the St Vitus Cathedral, the crowning spot for kings.
- The difficulty of the tour is light and without architectural barriers, but the last 200 meters are uphill
