The best time to visit St Vitus Cathedral and old town clock tower?

Not only for the view from the top, but also for the stained glass windows of the cathedral. Someone said sunset is the best but Grok (the AI) told me I should avoid sunset because the cathedral is mainly east west.

If you share your experience, please note your season or the time before sunset (I know it's not possible to get in around sunrise)

Based on the timestamp on my pictures, I was at the clock tower on October 11th from 6:00pm to 6:45pm. Sunset was probably around 6:15pm or just after that because I timed it to be up there for blue hour. It was perfect, get up there right before sunset.

I went to St. Vitus Cathedral in the morning but no opinion about what’s the best time to go.
