Prague is the setting of Dan Brown’s latest global bestseller, ‘ The Secret of Secrets’, showcasing the city’s Gothic landmarks, hidden courtyards, and mysterious alleys. In the novel, the famous protagonist Robert Langdon explores Prague, uncovering its secrets and history. The city is not just a backdrop but is portrayed as a living character with layers of mystery.
Brown’s narrative moves through iconic sites such as Charles Bridge, the Baroque Klementinum Library, and the winding streets of Old Town. According to a report by Czechtourism India, for travelers, this connection between fiction and reality has inspired guided tours that take visitors through the locations featured in the book, from centuries-old squares and chapels to secret passageways, merging storytelling with exploration.
“Dan Brown’s novel shines a spotlight on Prague in a way that blends storytelling with travel,” said Barbara Andelová, International Marketing Manager – New Markets, CzechTourism. “It offers readers and visitors a chance to rediscover the city through mystery and imagination, adding a fresh dimension to how Prague can be experienced.”
The book also highlights other historic locations in Czechia, including Český Krumlov with its riverside castle and storybook streets, and Kutná Hora, famous for St. Barbara’s Church and the Sedlec Ossuary, both UNESCO World Heritage Sites. These sites showcase Czechia’s rich cultural history and hidden treasures for travelers seeking authentic experiences.
