'Open door day' in the seat of the Czech government

During this summer you have a good opportunity to visit the seat of the Czech government – Straka’s Academy, situated at the riverside in the Lesser Town (Nabrezi Edvarda Benese 4).

Straka’s academy, a neo-baroque building built in 1891-96, has been the seat of the government since 1993. Before that it served as a grammar school with accommodation for students, later on as an academy building. It was the first building in Prague that was equipped with the central heating.

During the excursion you can see the state rooms as well as the assembly hall. All you have to do for it is to book the excursion in advance on telephone number 224 002 111 or via email posta@vlada.cz.
