Prague Children and Youth Centers (DDM)

A wide variety of leisure time activities at affordable prices

Prague DDMs, i.e. Children and Youth Centers, are places that offer a wide variety of art, sports, nature, sciences, technology, and other leisure time activities NOT ONLY for children and youth. DDMs are centers of fun and education, where people of all ages can explore their interests and develop their talents, and thus meaningfully spend their free time. Let’s have a closer look!

What activities do the DDMs offer?

  • Clubs

    • Regular activities, which are usually organized once a week and cover various topics – sports, theater, music, dance, nature, technology, science, or foreign languages. Prior registration and participation fee payment is required (paid for one semester or one academic year).
  • Camps
