Well I have climbed quite a few of those.
I Love the TV tower in Zizkov and in fact danced a Jig beside it for my 50th birthday celebrations a few years ago.
The Old Town Tower has a lift that takes you to the top and it gives great views and the Charles Bridge tower has a great slide show as well as superb views.
not all the towers are open to the public but you cold spend a whole holiday climbing the ones that are

Bardo1--this is unrelated but I wrote an email to you recently about being quoted in a Fodor's guide and it bounced back. Could you drop me an email at [email protected]?

Bardo and Katie:

>>>Smaller Romanesque Judith’s Tower is the most visible remain of Judith’s bridge<<< (Copied from the web site)

Interesting sidelight here. On one of our visits to Prague, in '93, we were staying at The Three Ostriches
U Tri Pstrosu)..and I took a pic of the Judith Tower from our window when I was told the name of the tower(Judith was a Queen of old Bohemia...9th century).
I've since used it as a landmark destination in one of my historical novels, taking place in c.1904)

Why such an interest? Because my dear late wife's name was.......Judith Tower!

( my kids and grandchildren joke about it, saying that their mother/grandmother is the only Ameican to have one of Prague's many towers named after her!)

Stuart Tower

Stu makes 101 Towers

no, no PQ..that's "101 Dalmatians"...the Judith Tower is one of the vaunted 100 on the web site.

Thanks anyway..

Stu what is the name of your book and is it in print in britain?

unclegus:


I try very hard not to cite any of my works on Fodors, having been roundly accused of advertising my books here several years ago...what utter nonsence. The book in question can be bought on Amazon...you have my name.

Any further questions, I'll answer only off post.

\on the subject of Towers in Prague,my mate is convinced he took a picture of a ghost in the Powder Tower in Prague,i reckon it was the shadow of a statue,but we have never been able to get back in there to check it out,each time i have been in Prague since the Powder Tower has been closed.

Unclegus, we climbed the Powder Tower in October 2008. Didn't see any ghosts, but the wind was making the roof tiles rattle and the timbers/beams creak. It was spooky.

Bardo1, thanks for the link.

Hi bardo; Great link. We have been to Prague three times and it is one of our favorite cities. Iris

I can reccommend the Jindisska Tower.only been in there for a drink but there is also a resturant inside too.
I used it a couple of times on my last trip as I could walk outside ,cross the road and take a tram right back to my hotel.
