Petřín Lookout Tower: frequently asked questions
Is this the official Petřín tower website?
No. Prague Ticket Guide is an independent visitor guide. The official information is on the operator’s own site, prague.eu. We are not the operator, we do not run the tower, and this is not the official site. The tickets featured here are sold by our partner Tiqets, a third party.
What does the tower and Mirror Maze ticket include?
The product on our tickets page gives entry to the Petřín tower and the Mirror Maze, according to Tiqets. The lift, a live guide and an audio guide are not included. The listing gives about 1 hour for the visit, which is not an official figure. Cancellation terms are stated on the card.
How many steps are there, and is there a lift?
There are 299 steps to the panoramic cabin at 51 m. A lift is available as an extra; the operator says it is meant mainly for families with small children, older visitors and people with reduced mobility, and that it can be out of service.
Is the funicular running?
According to its operator DPP, the funicular restarted on 22 September 2026 in trial operation, every day from 7:00 to 22:15 every 10 minutes. Some pages on the tower’s own site still say it is out of service, an older notice: check the DPP site.
What are the opening hours?
Every day: 9:00 to 19:00 from April to September, 9:00 to 18:00 in October and 10:00 to 18:00 from November to March. The official site publishes no last-entry time, and the tower closes 30 minutes after the end of the opening hours.
Is the Mirror Maze open at the same time as the tower?
It has its own hours: from 10:00 to 18:00 from January to March, from 9:00 to 18:00 in April, May and October, from 9:00 to 19:00 from June to September, and from 10:00 to 18:00 in November and December. The official site publishes no last-entry time for the maze either.
