Security operation expected to place restrictions on traffic and movement

The two-day high profile event in Prague will be accompanied by a massive security operation involving the Czech police, army and foreign security teams. A number of locations will be closed to traffic and there may be restrictions on movement in the vicinity of Prague Castle. The National Gallery which has expositions in the Šternberg and Schwarzenberg palaces on Hradčany Square and the St. George Basilica has said it plans to close them down for three days in view of the heightened security requirements.
