The Petřín Lookout Tower is a 63.5-metre iron lattice structure built in 1891 on Petřín Hill, offering 360-degree panoramic views of Prague from its observation deck reached by climbing 299 steps. Visitors ascend an open double-helix iron staircase to see landmarks including Prague Castle, Charles Bridge, the Old Town spires, and on clear days can view up to 100 kilometres across the Bohemian landscape. The adjacent Mirror Maze, built the same year, features a traditional mirror labyrinth and a diorama depicting the 1648 Swedish siege of Prague.
