Bag storage at Prague Castle

Arriving at Prague Castle with more than you want to carry means deciding between the castle's own storage and nearby alternatives before you reach the gates.

The castle itself has no separate luggage storage for full-sized suitcases, so the nearest reliable bag drops are back in the centre or at sights you may be passing anyway. Rudolfinum offers free cloakrooms that take larger luggage, while Charles Bridge has no storage but is open around the clock if you want to time your crossing without carrying anything heavy. It is also the largest ancient castle complex in the world, so you may be walking within the grounds longer than you expect. The neighbourhood around the castle is called Hradčany. The cloakroom there is intended for bags, backpacks, and coats that are not permitted inside specific buildings such as St. Vitus Cathedral or the Old Royal Palace. The complex itself is open daily from 6:00 to 22:00, but the historic buildings inside only open from 9:00 to 17:00 in summer and 9:00 to 16:00 in winter.

Getting to the castle with luggage

Tram line 22 is the most direct route, stopping at Pražský hrad right beside the castle, and the Pohořelec stop on the same line leaves you a downhill walk of roughly 10 minutes to the western entrance. From Malostranská station on metro line A, the walk up the Old Castle Stairs takes about 15 minutes uphill, which is worth knowing if you are carrying anything heavy. A standard 30-minute ticket costs 39 Kč and a 90-minute ticket costs 50 Kč, so a short hop from the centre is cheap enough to make a dedicated bag drop en route worthwhile.

Nearby sights with their own storage

Charles Bridge is Prague's oldest bridge, lined with 30 baroque statues of saints and offering scenic views of Prague Castle, and it is open 24 hours a day with free entry, so it works well as a sightseeing stop before or after a castle visit.

Rudolfinum, the landmark building housing the Czech Philharmonic Orchestra and the Rudolfinum Gallery, offers free cloakrooms where visitors can store belongings including larger luggage if necessary.
