No — a prenup is a private document and is not a public record. Nobody can look it up, and you do not file it with any registry or court when you make it.
No public register
In England & Wales there is no register of prenuptial agreements. The signed document simply stays with your private papers. It remains confidential between you and your partner (and your respective advisers).
The one exception: divorce proceedings
If a marriage ends and the finances are dealt with in court, the prenup would be disclosed to the court as part of those proceedings — but family financial proceedings are private, not open to the public. In normal life, your prenup stays entirely your own business (see who should consider one). Keep the original stored safely (see what to include).
