Prague Metro Ride ( Line A ) - Muzeum to Náměstí Míru | 2x Escalator | 29/05/25

Muzeum (Czech pronunciation: [ˈmuzɛu̯m]) is a major interchange station on the Prague Metro, located directly beneath Wenceslas Square and the historic building of the National Museum. It serves as a transfer point between Line A and Line C. The station opened in two phases: the Line C part on 9 May 1974 and the Line A part on 12 August 1978. Line A station The Line A station is a mined, three-aisled, column-type structure. Its central nave is shortened to 69.1 metres and connects to the side platforms through nine pairs of cross-passages. The station lies 34 metres below the surface. From the central nave, an escalator tunnel descends beneath the Line C platform, where short escalators provide direct access to the Line C island platform. The station's exit is located laterally above the southern track in a separate escalator tunnel outside the main station axis; it connects to the platform via a corridor and stairs. The interior features brown anodised aluminium cladding and marble panels. Construction costs for the Line A part, excluding lifts, amounted to 230 million Czechoslovak crowns. From July 2017 to May 2018, the Line A platform underwent reconstruction while remaining in operation. Sections of the platform were temporarily closed: the Depo Hostivař-bound side from 11 July to 11 December 2017, and the Nemocnice Motol-bound side from 3 January to 20 May 2018. During these periods, trains served the station in only one direction, passing through in the opposite direction. Náměstí Míru (Czech pronunciation: [ˈnaːmɲɛsciː ˈmiːru], English: Peace Square) is a Prague Metro station on Line A. It is located in Vinohrady district under Korunní Street and has one exit through an escalator tunnel with a sub-surface vestibule under the plaza of the same name. The exit of the metro station is in the immediate vicinity of the Church of St. Ludmila and Vinohrady Theatre. The station was completed along with the first section of Line A, between Leninova and Náměstí Míru, and opened on 12 August 1978. It served as a terminus until the extension of Line A to Želivského station on 19 December 1980. Náměstí Míru is the deepest station of the Prague Metro, its platform is situated 53 metres below surface. The station has the longest escalators in European Union (length 87 m, vertical span 43.5 m, 533 steps, taking 2 minutes and 21 seconds to ascend or 2 minutes 19 seconds to descend without walking). Náměstí Míru, however, is not the deepest point within the Prague Metro network; this record belongs to the tunnel between Hradčanská and Malostranská stations (68 m below surface). The station is named after the square under which it is located. During the 2002 European floods the station became the western terminus for its line, with trains running to Skalka. Náměstí Míru is intended to be part of the new Line D, with trains running between the station and C-line station Pankrác. The D-line station is intended to be built closer to the surface, meaning the existing station on the A-line will continue to be the deepest on the network. Line A (Czech: Linka A) is a line of the Prague Metro, serving the Czech capital. Chronologically the second line in the system, it was first opened in 1978 and has expanded mostly during the 1980s. With the opening of the extension to Nemocnice Motol on 6 April 2015, Line A operates on approximately 17.1 kilometres (10.6 mi) of route and serves 17 stations. An extension with a further five stations to the airport is currently planned. Future The first phase of a CZK18.7 billion extension on the west end of the A line, from Dejvická to Nemocnice Motol, was opened to the public on the afternoon of 6 April 2015. The second phase of this extension was expected to extend the line to Václav Havel Airport Prague. In 2015, it was announced that rail was the preferred option of connecting the city with the airport. #praguemetro #praguetransport #publictransport #metro #railway #rail #ubahn #subway #transport #railways #transit #rapidtransit #train #trains #transportation #bahn #eisenbahn #bahnhof #subwaystation #publictransportation #europe #züge #zug #undergroundrailroad #escalator #escalatorsandelevators #prague #praguecity #praha #czechrepublic #czechia #europe #europetravel #travel #centraleurope #podzemnídráha #vlak #vlaky #NáměstíMíru #Muzeum #DPlifts #EscalatorsAnywhere #CentralCityMetrosandRailVideos #centralcity #VideoRambler #Niskopodłogowiec #LP95 #TheBahnfreak98 #timosha21 #MaximBosley #RailPublicTransport #metrocheck #antonv #metromark
