About Prague

Tucked into the rolling farmland of Saunders County, Prague is a quiet, close-knit village proud of its deep Czech roots. Founded in the late 1800s by Bohemian immigrants, the town was named after the European capital and holds onto that heritage with pride. Sitting along Highway 79, Prague offers peaceful rural living while keeping residents within easy driving distance of Lincoln, Omaha, and nearby Wahoo.

Prague, Nebraska city hall

Community life here revolves around good neighbors and celebrated traditions, particularly the food. Prague is legendary for its kolaches and once baked a record-breaking 5,200-pound pastry that had to be weighed at the local grain elevator before everyone dug in. It is the kind of welcoming small town where daily life moves at a relaxed pace, surrounded by wide-open country and friendly faces.
