PRAGUE
Prague is one of Europe’s most beautiful and most visited capitals, known for its historic centre, impressive architecture and lively summer atmosphere. But Prague is much more than a postcard city – it is also full of parks, cafés, cultural events and places where you can enjoy student life beyond the classroom. European Summer School gives you the chance to study in the heart of the city while also experiencing the everyday energy of Prague.
CLASSROOMS
Our courses take place at the French Institute, in a central location close to Wenceslas Square. The venue offers a great base for summer study in the city centre, with easy access by public transport and plenty of cafés, shops and lunch options nearby. The current Location page also notes that ESS uses several classrooms there during the summer.
ACCOMMODATION
Most students choose to stay in Student House Botič (more about it in Accommodation tab), the accommodation recommended and arranged by ESS. Staying there is not mandatory, but it is the most convenient option and the place where many students stay together during the programme. It also creates a more social atmosphere, as ESS coordinators and activity leaders are around there as well, and many organised activities start from this point.
From Student House Botič to the French Institute
Getting between the accommodation and the classrooms is easy. There is a direct tram connection, and students can take tram 6 or 24 towards Václavské náměstí, which is the stop used for reaching the French Institute area.
The journey from Student House Botič to the French Institute is roughly 15–20 minutes by tram.

Testimonials
Jakub
I enjoyed time in Prague very much, the city is splendid, people were awesome. Even though I am not a party guy, the program offered me a lot of sightseeing, city tours, I visited museums, parks and everything possible. Two weeks is ideal time for getting to know new people, making new friendships, to learn something and enjoy city. I would recommend joining ESS for everyone.
Max Strasser
Really cool experience. Visited two SummerSchools this summer and this one was by far the better one. Beside some really cool courses the two weeks are filled with leisure activities, which ensure that there is no stodgy minute. You get some views of prag, that a normal tourist wouldn't get so fast. Furthermore, you will meet new people from all over the world, which will make it an unforgettable trip for you. 10/10 ??

Amazing experience! This program was exactly what I was looking for as it offered the perfect balance between class and fun activities/excursions to ensure that we experienced all that Prague has to offer. I took the digital graphics class and cannot believe how much I learned in only two weeks. Highly recommend this opportunity to meet some amazing people, form lasting friendships, explore an enchanting city, and learn new skills!
