A beautiful Baroque façade conceals a Romanesque basilica (Bazilika svatého Jiříqui) that is said to be the best preserved in Bohemia. Its massive vaults house the crypt of the kings of the Přemyslid dynasty and the remains of Saint Ludmila of Bohemia. The convent adjoining the basilica (closed to the public) was founded in 973 and has since undergone numerous alterations. It was converted into barracks during the reign of Joseph II. The most recent reconstruction took place between 1962 and 1974.

Accessible avec le billet de la cathédrale ou du château. C'est un lieu assez rustique dans un style roman classique. A l'intérieur, il y a des reliques assez nombreuses dont certaines semblent toujours attirer des dévots...

Pour entré dans cette basilique il faut payer j’apprécie donc moyennement. De plus à l'intérieur c'est pas superbe. C'est surtout sombre et froid.
The Saint Georges basilica is located in Prague castle. You can visit it if you buy tickets short or long visit. Most impressive: the red façade is very well preserved.
