The Centre of Real Bohemians

The pulsing heart of Europe is filled with places to explore and enjoy. Admire the historical city centre, visit chic cafés, galleries and fine restaurants, or just hang out with the locals. Art and culture flourish in Prague and they always have. So step into the cobblestone lanes and immerse yourself in its bohemian spirit!

Thousands of years ago, Prague became the centre of Bohemia and the world-famous notion of being bohemianbecame a term used to describe people with a creative and unconventional way of life. Prague is therefore home to bohemians, open-minded and open-hearted people who know how to live and let others live in peace, who love unbridled life, humour and creativity.

An intellectual hub full of inspiration

Thanks to its geographical location, Prague has always been a crossroads where nationalities, cultures, religions, philosophical trends and craftsmanship have met and intertwined. It was here where ideas merged and changed our view of the world and often our history. There is endless room for brave new approaches and experimentation. The desire to reimagine or place things in new playful contexts is not only an appealing part of Prague’s character, but also explains the ubiquitous manifestations of its people’s creative nature.  Stunning preserved monuments and a rich cultural heritage from the Romanesque style to Cubism recount stories of the creative efforts of previous generations of locals, artists, and craftsmen who together succeeded in building, preserving and passing down the city to today’s community of Praguers.

Today, Prague opens up a broad field of activity to anyone looking for answers or a new angle. It offers a concentrated combination of know-how, experience, critical thinking skills, and endless space for groundbreaking projects and unconventional experiments of all kinds. It is home to many creative innovators who have chosen Prague as the base for their technology hubs, science incubators or various start-ups thanks to the local approach and vibe. Prague’s streets and corners invite all of those who appreciate its genius loci and the way of life of its citizens. As a student, you will feel most welcome to join the city in preserving a sustainable way of life.

Wholesome sophistication of cultural heritage as an endless resource

The centuries-old city on the banks of the Vltava River is known practically the world over and ranks among the most beautiful European cities. It attracts visitors with its history and UNESCO-listed monuments. The urban, architectural, technological and artisanal sophistication of its material heritage is an endless source of inspiration for all those who create and research in Prague. It attracts personalities who redefine the concept of quality in many fields and create ideas and products with high added value.

Pleasure to live and work in

Prague is a pleasure to live and work in, has long been one of the safest destinations in Europe, and the local hotels and gastronomy measure up to a high standard.
