Prague from Mozart's Eyes
Prague was once home to many famous people. One of which, was none other than Mozart!
Between 1787 and 1791, Mozart visited Prague five times. The first visit was for Symphony K504(" Prague"), and the second was with La Clemenza di Tito, a composition he wrote for Holy Roman Emperor Leopold II's coronation as King of Bohemia.
Some of the pubs are located near places where we know Mozart frequently stayed, played, visited, or performed, providing us with more information about his personal life.

Skořepka Street, which is close to Uhelny Trh, Prague’s ‘Kohlmarkt’. We know Mozart stayed at the "House of the Three Lions" on the corner of this square on a 1787 visit( most likely the second), so the location for this is accurate. According to tradition, he played pool in the long-gone pub Uturmu on Skoepka Street, which is close to Uhelny Trh, Prague's "Kolmarkt"(" The Coal Market") The Estates Theatre and Uhelny Trh are connected by the Rytirska Street, where Don Giovanni made his highly anticipated debut on October 29, 1787, following Figaro's success.
