Vladislav Hall

Vladislav Hall is a monumental chamber within Prague Castle, built between 1493 and 1502 under King Vladislaus II. As the largest secular space in medieval Prague, it impresses with its imposing dimensions and technically ambitious stone vaulting, which spans sixteen meters. The hall was originally used for banquets, receptions, coronations, and even jousting tournaments, with the wide Riders' Staircase allowing horses to enter. Today it is a central venue for major state events of the Czech Republic. Here you can experience the striking architecture of the late Middle Ages, located on the third floor of the palace, where it replaced older Gothic and Romanesque structures.
