Visit: St. Francis of Assisi Church, Krizovnicke NamEsti 3, Prague 11000 Czech Republic
St Francis Church is one of the most beautiful baroque churches of Prague.
You can find it at Křížovnické náměstí 3, Prague 1
Although the original baroque pews offer only 70 seats, it has long and important music tradition. This organ concert series runs continuously from 1993 to nowadays, yearly and daily from Easter to November, and it's longest uninterrupted Prague Organ concert cycle.
Organ of St. Francis church is an important historic instrument built in 1702 by Master Abraham Stark from Elgbogen in Western Bohemia. Many famous musitians, as for example Amadeus Mozart or Antonin Dvorak, played this organ in the past. This rare organ is the second oldest in Prague, but oldest one you can hear at concert. In the year 2015 there was large and complicated reconstruction using the most modern technologies and methods of restoration and reparations, so this instrument is in excellent restored shape, and you can really enjoy a sound of genuine baroque organ in true baroque acoustic.

The church was spectacular and the concert was very nice. Perfect length at about an hour. Venue was cold, but that’s expected in an old church at night in December. Dress warmly!

Panis Angelicus was fabulous. It would have been better if the violin and soloist were on the stage instead of in the balcony where we couldn't see them even though our seats were good.

The concert was wonderful! A violinist and mezzo soprano performed, as well as the organist. What a treat!

This was really cool. 100% recommend if this is your first time in Prague. The performers are really talented and the venue is a very unique experience that you likely won’t find other places.

Building was gorgeous. Musicians (3, sproano, organist and violin) were playing in the veranda, so you couldn't see them, only hear them. Only after 30 minutes the soprano came down with the violinist. It started with Tocata and Fuge...and unfortunately not a very good rendition. It was alright, given the price point...you get what you pay for type deal. It was ok, but wouldn't repeat the experience.
