Street Art in Prague, Czechia: 11 Murals You Can’t Miss

So, how’s the street art scene in Prague, you ask? Well, you’ll need some time to explore it properly. There might not be that many huge, building-sized murals, but Prague makes up for it with smaller, more hidden art pieces. However, there’s one catch. They’re EVERYWHERE! Sometimes you’ll go to see just a single artwork in a neighbourhood, and that’s it. So one day definitely won’t be enough to see them all. 

Prague is one of the most fascinating cities in Europe – at least on my list. Its history is as interesting as the fact that the city was “built” from several smaller towns. That’s why every district has its own unique vibe. I don’t even need to mention that Prague is surrounded by hills which adds at least ten extra points to its charm. 

If you are planning to stay for just a day or two, a must-see list is essential. Trust me, you won’t have a single free moment. Prague is simply too awesome to take it slow! 

Beyond murals, you’ll also find plenty of art-related spots, and I don’t mean just galleries (though those are pretty cool too). It’s worth checking if there’s something interesting happening nearby while you’re in town. 

Anyway, we’re here for the murals, right? So below you’ll find ten that really caught my eye, and honestly, it would be a shame to miss them.

Mural by Vladimir Strejcek & Drawetc (📌 Kosicka 32/17)

This mural is worth seeing both during the day and at night. It gives totally different vibes depending on the light! We (me and my travel partner, aka my husband ^^”) started our day by visiting it. We got there by tram from our accommodation near the main train station.

The neighbourhood where the mural is located is breathtaking. We literally stopped in front of almost every old building just to admire all those details. And the mural itself? It’s sweet and original!

💡Travel trip: grab yourself a 24-hour ticket in the offical transport app, espacially if you’re planning to chase murals outside the city center. Prague’s public transport works quite good – during our stay we never had to wait long for a bus, tram or underground.

Gai & Gaya mural by Michal Skapa (📌 Moskevska 77/4)

Hard to capture in a photo, but totally worth seeing in person. A piece created by a Czech artist – Michal Skapa.

💡 Travel tip: Just a short walk from here, you’ll find a lovely spot for breakfast and coffee that won’t break the bank – Cafe Jen.

Milada Horakova mural by Toy Box (📌 M. Horakove 690/4)

In general, I’m not into historical murals but the portrait of Milada Horakova really stands out. It’s not just about her story (which is wild enough on its own). It’s the technique, the quote, the whole vibe. Everything feels so subtle and intentional. Totally not like those Polish patriotic murals with generals staring down at you. This one actually makes you stop for a second and feel something.

Fox by Dzia (📌 VNITROBLOCK, Tusarova)

From the outside, VNITROBLOCK looks like just another old apartment building. But step inside and… boom! The vibe totally changes. There’s A LOT going on here – restaurants, coffee spots, creative studios, a place with craft beer, and even a gin workshop. And of course, the ART. The most recognizable piece is Dzia’s fox mural, but don’t stop there. Wander around because there’s so much more to discover.

Metropolis by Nawer (📌 Delnicka 883/36)

Mural by a Polish artist created for Trafo Gallery in Prague in collaboration with Brain Damage Gallery back in 2017. The real power of this piece lies in its colour palette which is bold and vivid, and also in the way the shapes interact with each other.

💡 Travel tip: Trafo Gallery is worth seeing too! It’s located inside the former slaughterhouse in Hall 14 of the Holešovice Market. The gallery focuses on contemporary Czech and international art, mostly by mid-career artists.

Chasing The Red Demon by AEC interesni kazki (📌 Za Papirnou 308/9)

The red demon, as the artist explained, symbolises of Soviet communism. But I wanted to see this mural way before I even knew that. I just love surrealistic art, and to me, this one totally gives me Salvador Dali vibes.

Mural by Malujemejinak (📌 Na Zatorach 7)

A mural showing dance – and yet somehow so much more. Painted thanks to the artists of course and to the Urban Pictus mural and art festival.

💡 Travel tip: Just a few steps away there’s Cross Club – a legendary spot with a quiet history. It’s the only building on this crossroads that the owner managed to save from developers. Go there for a beer or grab something to eat. They’ve got vegan and vegetarian options too.

Road Ahead Closed by M-City (📌 Sokolovska 325)

M-City and his unmistakable style, all created with stencils. I could stare at this mural for ages. The longer you look, the more tiny details start to appear. The little local accent at the bottom of the wall was “part” of M-City’s mural at the beginning. The adds were here before M-City’s piece and they couldn’t be removed. Somehow this weird composition is charming. ^^”

Calling by Innerfields (📌 K Olympiku 563/2)

Another mural created for the Urban Pictus festival. The message is pretty clear – no need to say more. Now it’s time to take action.

David Attenborough mural by Tim Marsh (📌 U Stare Plynarny 1541/10)

This mural is a tribute for career and activity of David Attenborough. You know him, right?

Vesmir Meduz by Michal Skapa (📌Krizikova 61)

You’ll see this piece on almost every website about street art in Prague. At least I did while planning my Czech trip. But there’s so much more art by Michal Skapa in the city, and honestly, I don’t think this famous one is even his best. So stay curious and see what else you can find. 😉

Bonus: Retroreflexe by Epos 257 (❌ no longer exists)

When my husband saw this mural, he said, “Human imagination has no borders”. I think that says it all, especially for a piece made out of 256 authentic road signs. Unfortunately, the mural no longer exists. I was lucky enough to see it just one week before it was removed. Sooo luckly!

Another Bonus: Sculptures in Prague

Prague is full of fascinating sculptures that either blend perfectly into their surroundings or boldly reshape the space around them. A perfect example? The penguins! They’re quirky and unexpected but absolutely necessary.

Summary

Of course, that’s not all the murals worth seeing in Prague. As always, time was my biggest enemy. But I’m hoping to come back – Prague is pretty close to Poland, so it shouldn’t be too hard. And when I do, I’ll add even more to this article. Promise!

But for now, I recommend checking the Prague map in the Street Art Cities app, where my friend Dany makes sure the murals are always up to date. You should also visit his instagram: streetartpraha.  It’s packed with graffiti, street art, and murals.

Okay, a few more tips to wrap things up.

If you don’t really feel like hunting for murals on your own, you can join an organised group tour. They’re not so expensive, and you might get some local insights. But don’t set your expectations too high. Just go with the flow and let the locals guide you. (Yes, I went on a tour, I had expectations, and yes, I was a little disappointed… but that was all my fault! ^^”).

Like it here? Say YES by supporting me. ⸜(｡˃ ᵕ ˂ )⸝♡

As for practical stuff, prices are really reasonable. Though, of course, it’s a bit more expensive in the city center. But honestly, that’s not a downside, because Prague is charming beyond downtown, and it’s totally worth wandering around a bit.

So, let me know when you’re in Prague! I’d love to hear what you think and how you enjoyed it.

Cheers,

Karolajn
