Powder Tower, Prague Overview

The Powder Tower or Powder Gate is a medieval gothic tower in Prague, Czech Republic. This original city gate divides the New Town and the Old Town. In the 17th century, the gateway was used to stock gunpowder, thus the names Powder Tower and Powder Gate. During the Battle of Prague, the gate sustained significant damages. In 1876, new sculptures were installed on the tower.

One of the most important buildings of Late Gothic Prague is this massive entryway, through which the coronation processions of Czech emperors entered the Old Town. The Powder Gate Tower, completed in 1475 and once used as a depot for gunpowder, is still the starting point for the Coronation or Royal Route to Prague.
