About the district

What to know before renting or buying

01

Infrastructure

The district is home to embassies, palaces, and private gardens — the Vrtba Garden, Wallenstein Garden, and Petřín Park with its funicular. Shops, cafés, and restaurants line Malostranské náměstí and Nerudova Street; everyday infrastructure is more modest than in residential neighbourhoods.

02

Transport

Metro line A: station Malostranská is steps from the district. Tram 22 connects Malá Strana with the centre, Wenceslas Square, and western neighbourhoods. The pedestrian Charles Bridge offers a direct route to Old Town.

03

Housing and prices

The housing stock consists of renovated historic buildings from the 17th–19th centuries with high ceilings and thick walls. Prices are among the highest in Prague, comparable to Praha 1. Choice is limited, as many buildings are occupied by diplomatic missions.

04

Schools and kindergartens

There are few schools and kindergartens in Malá Strana itself, given the district's tourist and diplomatic character. The French Lycée and the German School are in neighbouring Praha 6 (Dejvice), a few tram stops away.

05

Safety and atmosphere

One of the safest and quietest districts in Prague, thanks to its proximity to embassies and tourist sites. Police and municipal security are constantly present; streets are well lit. By evening the district is significantly quieter than the centre.
