A building with a rich history dating back to John Henry (Jan Jindřich), brother of Emperor Charles IV. As trends were changing, so was the building's appearance. From Romanesque through Gothic to Baroque, a style that the palace kept to this day. The building enjoyed its greatest glory at the turn of the 18th and 19th centuries, when it hosted concerts, theatre performances and balls. And there's more! Ludwig van Beethoven performed here, and – although this is not confirmed – Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart may have done so too. They were the music stars of their time. The giant statues on the palace facade could tell stories of how they grew under the hands of the renowned Matthias Braun (Matyáš Braun), and how magnificent carriages drawn by six horses drove up to the palace beneath them. The interiors of the chambers will take your breath away. And even if you're not into interior design, you won't be able to resist the charm of the past, that's for sure. And of course, we organize programs here for our youngest visitors.

No one knows when this building, located at what is now Týnská Street, was built. But legend has it that the name of the house comes from a gold ring that was lost in front of the house by one of the Old Town ghosts. The then owner of the house found it and hung it above the door. It's a bit far-fetched, but there may be some truth to it. This house has also undergone extensive reconstruction. Today, the House at the Golden Ring is part of our museum's exhibition venues. There is an exhibition about Prague during the time of Roman Emperor Charles IV. Don't worry, there are no endless display cases. We have designed the exhibition in a modern, multimedia style. It will show you how Charles imagined the transformation of his beloved Prague. Not all of his thoughts and ideas were brought to life, but you will learn about those as well.

This house once caused quite a stir in Prague. It was the first flat-roofed house in Střešovice. But the biggest surprise is inside. The rooms are at different levels and adapted precisely to their intended use. Forget about the traditional ground floor, first floor, and second floor. The rooms intertwine at different levels and together form an incredibly functional living space - a labyrinth that makes you feel like you're in a futuristic spaceship rather than a house built in 1930. The Müller Villa is currently under construction. Once it is finished, you can stop by and see for yourself that the labyrinth is for real.

This inconspicuous building in Výtoň has been there since 1500. Today, it seems a bit sunken. This is because the banks of the Vltava River have been constantly raised due to flooding, but the customs house has remained at its original altitude. Better than nothing - imagine if it had been demolished! Back then customs duty was collected here from raftsmen transporting wood to the city. And before customs duty began to be paid in money, part of the wood was taken as payment – which is what the area Na Výtoni takes its Czech name from. Our museum has its exhibition on the first floor, because there is a pub on the ground floor. Here (in the exhibition, not in the pub) you can learn about the history of timber rafting, which had been the most important building material before concrete came along. You can also learn about the past of old Podskalí, which used to be a very unique suburb of Prague.

The first mention of the estate dates back to 1372, so it has seen a lot over the years. The owners changed like clockwork. The Hrzán family, the Losy family from Losinthal, the Hazmburk family, the Windischgrätz family, the Schoeller family, and Adam the Younger of Wallenstein. Simply a good address. Everything they could ever need was here. The castle park, granaries, stables, carriage garages, riding hall, and "drábovna", which was a kind of local police station (today it houses the security guards). Modern times have added a bistro, a hotel where the granaries once used to be, and a renowned garden centre. And also peace and quiet, which you can come and enjoy when you've had too much of it all.

Blocks and cylinders. Architect Otto Rothmayer wanted to show the world that architecture can manage perfectly well with basic shapes. And he really succeeded. Thanks to its functional simplicity, you suddenly feel like you're somewhere in the Mediterranean. Just without the seagulls. And without the sea. The villa has undergone a complete renovation, including the adjacent garden. The interiors are furnished with authentic items that were actually found here and meticulously restored to recreate the spirit of their time. That is, the turn of the 1950s and 1960s. Come and discover the unique "story of one family and one house." A guide who knows everything there is to know about the villa will show you around, so you can ask anything you want.

Our museum headquarters. This magnificent building was opened in 1900. After more than 120 years, it underwent a complete renovation. It took five years! The building was not only renovated but also modernized. From the outside, it looks the same as it did at the beginning of the 20th century. But inside, you will be surprised by the latest technology, including artificial intelligence. It goes without saying that there is an elevator and wheelchair access, a café, and a kids' corner where our mascot Grifo will entertain our youngest visitors. The famous Langweil paper model of 19th-century Prague is also on display here. You can take a tour of Prague's rich history, check out the live paintings, and enjoy countless interesting themed exhibitions throughout the year. Plus, it's all free!
