Prague Webcam – Watch the Skyline and Zizkov TV Tower

The Prague Webcam looks west across the Czech capital from the roof of an office building at Vinohradska 184, in the city’s Prague 3 district. Red-tiled rooftops run toward the city center, the Zizkov Television Tower rises right of center, and the tree canopy of Olsany Cemetery fills the lower right of the frame beside Vinohradska street. A modern block with a checkered black and white facade stands directly below the camera. The view changes most with the seasons and the sky: the cemetery trees are green through summer, turn yellow and orange in October and stand bare in winter, while low cloud can swallow the far hills completely. A second camera on the same roof, on the Vrsovice tab, faces south toward Slavia Prague’s football stadium.

About Prague and the Vinohradska Rooftop

Both cameras belong to ITS a.s., a company whose offices are on the 12th floor of the building, with the cameras mounted on the roof above. The current broadcasts of both views began on 31 December 2025. The tower on the right of the main view is the Zizkov Television Tower in Mahlerovy sady park, about 1.5 kilometers (1 mile) away. It stands 216 meters (709 feet) tall and was built between 1985 and 1992, with an observation deck at 93 meters (305 feet) and restaurants at 66 meters (217 feet). In 2000 the artist David Cerny attached ten fiberglass crawling babies to its pillars, and they returned in 2001 as a permanent installation.

The woodland in the foreground is Olsany Cemetery, the largest cemetery in the Czech Republic at more than 50 hectares (120 acres). It was founded in 1680 for victims of the Great Plague, and around two million people have been buried there since. Zelivskeho Street splits it in two, and the eastern part, Olsany Cemeteries II, holds the New Jewish Cemetery. The road running away from the camera along the edge of the trees is Vinohradska. The historic center lies further out in the same direction, too far to pick out at street level.

The Vrsovice camera turns south. Its centerpiece is Fortuna Arena, Slavia Prague’s home ground, about 1.2 kilometers (0.7 miles) from the roof. The stadium opened on 7 May 2008 as Stadion Eden, holds 19,370 people and has carried the Fortuna name since July 2022. A large Tesco store sits to its right, apartment buildings fill the foreground, and a tall striped chimney and rows of high-rise apartment blocks line the far ridge.

Weather and Climate in Prague

Prague has cold winters and warm summers. Averaged over 1996 to 2025 at the camera’s location, January brings highs of about 3°C (37°F) and lows of about -3°C (27°F), and nights stay below freezing on average from December through February. With the leaves gone, the cemetery canopy turns gray and brown, and fog or low cloud can shrink the view to the nearest few blocks. Spring warms quickly: April highs average about 15°C (58°F) with lows near 4°C (39°F), and by May the trees below the camera are green again.

July and August are the warmest months, with highs near 25°C (76°F) and lows around 15°C (59°F). They are also the wettest, at about 80 millimeters (3.1 inches) of rain a month, against roughly 640 millimeters (25 inches) for the whole year. October cools to highs of about 14°C (58°F) and lows near 7°C (44°F), and in mid-October the cemetery woods on camera were turning yellow, orange and rust. Clear days push the horizon out to the hills beyond the city, while a gray sky flattens the rooftops into one tone.

Things to Do Near Zizkov, Prague

The Zizkov Television Tower is the obvious first stop. Its observation deck at 93 meters (305 feet) looks out over the same Prague 3 rooftops this camera shows, and the restaurant sits lower down at 66 meters (217 feet). Three bronze versions of David Cerny’s babies can be found in Kampa Park, by the Vltava. Closer to the camera, Olsany Cemetery is a quiet walk among old trees and monuments, and the student Jan Palach, who died in 1969, is buried here. Across Zelivskeho Street, the eastern section holds the New Jewish Cemetery.

Fortuna Arena, 1.2 kilometers (0.7 miles) south, hosts Slavia Prague’s home matches and occasionally the Czech national football team. For the historic center, head west: the top of Wenceslas Square is about 3 kilometers (1.9 miles) away, Old Town Square and the Astronomical Clock about 3.8 kilometers (2.4 miles), and Charles Bridge about 4.4 kilometers (2.8 miles).
