Walking
If you are in the heart of Old Town, start at the Old Town Square (Staroměstské náměstí). From the square, head towards the Astronomical Clock, which is a prominent landmark. Once you are facing the Astronomical Clock, walk straight towards the Týn Church (Kostel Matky Boží před Týnem) and keep the church on your left. Continue walking straight until you reach the intersection with Pařížská street. The Prague Meridian is located at Staroměstské náměstí, 110 00 Josefov, which is just a short walk from the square.
Public Transport (Tram)
If you are further away in the Old Town, you can take a tram to get closer. Head to the nearest tram stop, which is usually 'Staroměstská' or 'Národní třída'. Purchase a ticket from a nearby vending machine (costing around 40 CZK for a 30-minute ticket). Take tram 17 towards 'Náplavka' and get off at 'Staroměstská' stop. From there, it’s a short walk to Staroměstské náměstí where the Prague Meridian is located.
