Prague Metro Map

Michal B.

The Prague metro is the backbone of the city’s public transportation, offering fast, reliable, and affordable travel throughout the capital. The metro system consists of three main lines — A (green), B (yellow), and C (red) — covering key districts, major attractions, and residential areas. Trains run every few minutes, making it easy to get around without long waits.

In total, Prague’s metro (sometimes also referred as subway or underground) has 61 stations with a total length of 65 kilometers, and every year it services more than half a billion passengers. Ticket prices range from 30 CZK (€1.20) for a 30-minute ride to 120 CZK (€5) for an all-day ticket, and can be purchased at every metro station from the vending machine.

The metro map is a simple, color-coded diagram showing:

  • Line A (green): from Nemocnice Motol in the west to Depo Hostivař in the east. Ideal for accessing Prague Castle (Malostranská), Old Town (Staroměstská), and Wenceslas Square (Muzeum).
  • Line B (yellow): from Zličín in the west to Černý Most in the northeast. Serves shopping centers, business districts, and industrial zones.
  • Line C (red): from Letňany in the north to Háje in the south. Key for reaching the main train station (Hlavní nádraží) and Vyšehrad.

The three lines intersect at three major transfer stations:

  • Muzeum (Lines A and C)
  • Můstek (Lines A and B)
  • Florenc (Lines B and C)

These transfer points make switching lines quick and intuitive.
