The diversity and easy accessibility of locations is one of the main reasons filmmakers keep returning to the Czech Republic. From the metropolitan sophistication of the capital to the rustic atmosphere of the regions, you will find no shortage of inspiration.

Prague's varied architecture has allowed the city to double for dozens of other places and time periods in film, from medieval Europe to modern America - giving producers big savings over the original locations.

Producers can also enjoy the use of the Czech Republic's idyllic countryside. Our landscape is a tableau of beautiful lakes, rolling hills, deep forests, and snow-capped mountains. Plus, we have the highest density of period castles and chateaux in all of Europe, all within easy reach of Prague.

The locations you will find here are just a sample of what the Czech Republic offers. If you are seeking a particular look or type of location, please contact us or any of the location experts in our directory.
