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. Plus, it's all free!

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.

The most important work of Adolf Loos. A villa that the architect himself valued so much that he celebrated his sixtieth birthday there. The thoughtful interior will transport you to the 1930s. We will reopen soon.

This inconspicuous building in Výtoň has been there since the early 16th century. Today, it seems somewhat sunken. This is because the Vltava riverbank was raised during the construction of the embankment, but the customs house remained at its original level. Customs duties were collected here from rafters transporting wood into the city—the logs themselves, which were taken from the rafts, were partly used as payment—which is why the place is now called Na Výtoni (from the Czech verb vytínat). Our museum exhibition is on the first floor. Here you can learn about the history of timber rafting as well as the past of Podskalí district.

The first mention of the estate dates back to 1372, so it has seen a lot over the years. Owners have come and gone in rapid succession: the Hrzán family, the Waldsteins, the Losy family of Losinthal, the Windischgrätz family, the Des Fours family, and the Schoeller family. Simply a good address. It had everything they could ever need: a park, granaries, stables, and a riding hall. Modern times have added a bistro, a hotel in place of the granary, and a renowned garden centre. And also the peace and quiet you can come and enjoy here when you’ve just had enough of everything.

The family villa of architect Otto Rothmayer, set in a mysterious garden, which was captured many times by photographer Josef Sudek. The house is full of objects from Rothmayer's collection, the spiral staircase is decorated with artifacts from Prague Castle that the architect once brought home from work. His wife, the prominent textile artist Božena Rothmayerová, also had her study here.
