Guidebook Updates for the Czech Republic

• Driving is no longer permitted in the Český Krumlov city center. Drivers will need to park in one of the many lots ringing the Old Town — the easiest is lot P1, just north of the Old Town — and walk or take a taxi to their hotel.
• There is no longer a direct bus connecting Třeboň, Telč, and Třebíč.

• Restoration work at the Sedlec Bone Church has rerouted the visit; the sight is also transitioning to required advance booking. The bone church no longer offers a combo-ticket with St. Barbara's Cathedral.

For books printed before October 2023, the following may apply:

• Alphonse Mucha's Slav Epic paintings are still in the town of Moravský Krumlov (their return to Prague is now planned for 2027).

• There are now only two ticket offices at Prague Castle: in the Second and Third Courtyards. Tickets are also now sold online, though you must print them out and show them at entry. There is no longer a free entrance for St. Vitus Cathedral.
• A new Mucha Museum is now open in the Savarin Palace, around the corner from the Mucha Museum listed in our guidebooks (on Panská Street). Both museums' collections are roughly the same size and charge roughly the same entry fee; the newer one boasts an opulent Baroque setting and reproduction of the Slav Epic, while the original location has a worthwhile 30-minute film about the artist's life.
• All Jewish Museum Sights and the Old-New Synagogue are now covered under a single ticket (600 Kč, good for three days).
• The Spanish Synagogue has reopened after renovations.
• The Klausen Synagogue is closed for renovation through 2028.
