The inside of the Church itself is pretty magnificent. So many different murals, artworks and statues everywhere you look. It is neat to sit and think about when it was being built. Also, it is free to enter the church, but you can leave a donation if you are so moved. The statue of the Infant of Prague was in... More

I couldn't quit thinking of Ricky Bobby in Talladega Nights praying to the infant baby Jesus at the dinner table. Cuz he like the infant baby Jesus best.

Amusing to see people kneeling before what looks like the average toy store doll dressed up. Not to be disrespectful, but really?

Having grown up Roman Catholic, and being literally a stones throw away, it was worth seeing this beautiful church and an icon of Catholicism. Go, say a prayer.

The interior of the church is beautiful and well kept. The altar where the statue of the Infant Jesus is placed is exquisite and beautiful. A must for the believers.

A must see while you are in the city. No entrance fee and a great part of the city. Well worth a visit.

Free entrance and the church is adorable from the inside! The souvenir shop in the church is pretty expensive I advise to go to the shop facing the church with bigger variety of souvenirs.

I like how Jesus was represented in the altar. Magnificent but we couldn't visit the church. We only take the photo from outside. I guess it wasn't opened the morning.

It is probably "the doll" with widest collection of dresses in the world as these are coming as gifts from all around the world. By the way - it is "another" of beautifully decorated Prague churches.It is just about 3 minutes walking... More

A lovely church and an interesting story of the Jesus doll. So many outfits for the nuns to dress him in! I wonder how they climb up to the doll to do it, though, as he is so high up on the altar. The Indian priest was very accommodating and blessed my fellow-traveller's newly-bought rosary for him, which was nice.
