- Location: Seattle, WA
- Product code: PG - Live Stream Strahov Monastery
Join our expert guide on a live-streamed tour through one of the most beautiful libraries in the world. The Strahov Monastery book collection near Prague Castle was founded almost 900 years ago and is housed in the magnificent Theological and Philosophical Halls, which you may recognize from films and TV shows, including Amadeus and Outlander. By special arrangement with the library, we will be able to walk behind the ropes and move through the 17th- and 18th-century halls, which are filled with Baroque ornamentation and Rococo décor, exploring the allegorical frescoes designed to reconcile religion with a new era of scientific investigation in the Age of Enlightenment. Along the way, we will learn fascinating details about the monks’ dedication to books, natural sciences and to their legendary beer, first brewed in the 1400s. This tour is a wonderful way for groups to connect during Covid-19. We can take up to 100 devices (even more by request!).
