Powder Tower, as with many historical sites in Prague, undergoes periodic preservation and restoration.

The most recent treatment began Summer 2024 and is scheduled to be completed in October.

The city council gave Vladislav II the tower as a coronation gift.

The look of the tower was inspired by the work of Peter Parler on the Charles Bridge.

[2] Vladislav II had to relocate due to riots, so the tower building stopped.
