Nestled along the northern wall of Prague Castle, Golden Lane (Zlata Ulicka) dates back to the 15th century when it was constructed for the castle’s guards. The lane is lined with charming, miniature houses that have since been home to a variety of artists and writers, including the renowned Franz Kafka. Today, visitors can stroll through this historic street, taking in the well-preserved architecture and imagining the lives of its former inhabitants. The compact, colorful cottages offer a glimpse into the past, making it a captivating destination within the city.
