What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Visitors find the Smallest House a unique and quirky sight, appreciating its novelty as one of Toronto's smallest homes. However, many note that it's a private residence, meaning exterior viewing is the only option, and it's best visited if you're already in the area.
"Recently visited Prague in Sept 2025 and discovered online there is a "Smallest House in Prague!" - Deceptive.
Not only is this a blink and you can miss it location but there isn't anything to see apart from a door/number plaque.
It's hidden down a small alley behind the church. The property obviously gets its name because you can only see the door so its deceptive in terms of what lays behind as it may lead to a reasonable sized property behind the building which you can't see.
Not exciting and bit of a commodity but nevertheless curiosity killed the cat and I went to have a look just to see it.
Only go if you are in the area otherwise you don't need to go out of your way to see it."

"This house on Anezska street 4/1043 is apparently the smallest house in Prague. It looks small, but it’s a private house, so it’s not obvious just how small the house is. Worth a look only if you really need a selfie or photo for amusement, otherwise give it a miss."

"The walk to reach this place was very nice but the door itself is nothing special and isnt visitable inside"
