More information

The Powder Tower (also known as the Powder Gate) is one of the original 13 city gates in Prague's Old Town.

History

The history of Powder Tower dates back to 1475. One of the most significant monuments of Late Gothic Prague, it was through this gate that Czech kings would enter the Old Town during coronation processions.

Why is it called the Powder Tower?

The name 'Powder Tower' comes from its later use as a storage facility for gunpowder. During the 17th century, the tower was repurposed to store gunpowder and other munitions.

How to see the Powder Tower

Civitatis offers various tours that have the Powder Tower on their itinerary, including free tours and an electric scooter tour! Book one of these options to gain a deeper insight into this historic landmark.
