Radnické schody, Stone staircase in Hradčany, Czech Republic

The Radnické schody consists of 127 steps spanning 100 meters in length and ascending 30 meters between Nerudova Street and Loretánská Street.

The stairs, constructed in the 17th century following the removal of the castle ramp in 1663, replaced a steep road that existed since the 15th century.

Two Baroque statues stand at the lower entrance: Saint Joseph with infant Jesus on the right and Saint John of Nepomuk with angels on the left.

The stairs connect the lower and upper sections of Prague's Hradčany district, providing pedestrians direct access to Prague Castle and surrounding landmarks.

The stairs received their name from the Old Town Hall in 1870, but earlier names referenced the numerous butcher shops that operated in this area.
