Caballero - marioneta antigua

I can't say enough about this amazing experience! I was in Prague with my friend (and colleague) studying the art of marionettes as part of a grant for our work as speech and language pathologists. From planning this trip months ago and the wonderful communication with Lucie the shop manager prior to arriving to the day of the workshop was perfect! Everything was easy to plan from afar and all details were clear before we even arrived. After touring the castle area (also worth doing in Prague!) we walked down the beautiful cobblestone street towards the Czech Marionettes Shop. The place next door offered a great lunch spot too! As soon as we stepped foot into this adorable shop, we felt welcomed immediately and we were so excited to begin our workshop with Daniel. Daniel made us feel comfortable and walked us through each step of the process with care and patience as we created our very own, very unique marionettes. He shared the origins of this amazing art, talked about the benefits of puppetry, shared how he became involved in this craft, offered some of the history behind different characters and Czech puppets and provided examples of inspiration for our creative products. We had hands-on experience in the creation, using tools from the full studio to create our marionettes. Daniel encouraged us every step of the way! I can't stop talking about how fun and unique it was to be in this fabulous shop and creating this unique art form with experts in the workshop studio! We loved it so much and anyone at any level or age can enjoy it too! Thank you, Lucie and Daniel, for making our afternoon so memorable and helping us fulfill our wish for our grant about communication.

Absolutely gorgeous shop, I loved the range of price points and kinds of marionettes! Truly something for everyone, and I loved the pop culture ones as well. Staff were super lovely and answered all my questions as well as wrapping my purchase very securely in bubble wrap - survived his journey back to Australia! I highly recommend a visit if you’re looking for an authentic art piece and unique souvenir.
