Land Office - Prague City Hall

Very nice tenement house in front of the market square.

It was a good performance to meet the fame. The price is good. Admission fee 250 kr, beer 45 kr .. Korean money is about 50,000 won.

Regional office of the territory for the city of Prague.

So I will write about something other than what occurs most often here. This office manages land in the capital. Land - it is also land. And the soil is dwindling. Not only in Prague, but in the whole Czech Republic. Agricultural land is afforested, massively disappearing during the construction of cities (ie houses), warehouses, shopping centers, industrial plants, roads and railways. Over the past 90 years, 850,000 hectares of agricultural land in the Czech Republic have disappeared, ie an area of ​​17 Prague. And yet differently. Every day in the Czech Republic we lose eight hectares of agricultural land and that is less than ten football fields. What with this?

The Old Town Hall is undoubtedly the largest and most important monument in the western part of the square. It is a complex complex of four interconnected houses, which the Old Towns have gradually bought, built or acquired and adapted at the town hall since 1338. The first was the Wolflín od Kamene house with the original Gothic sandstone portal. In the eastern neighborhood of the oldest town hall, a tower almost 70 m high was built in 1338-64, mostly made of marl, but also of sandstone and also bricks. In the years 1805-07 it was equipped with a gallery with sandstone railings and columns. The second house of Kramář Kříž, built in the second half of the 14th century, has a beautiful Renaissance window on the façade, the middle part of which with the emblem of the Old Town in the tympanum dates from 1520-28. The village acquired the third - Mikš's house in 1458. Its ground floor with one large and two adjacent glazed Gothic arcades is made of sandstone blocks. The last and smallest town hall empire house U kohouta was bought by the town in 1838. The Old Town Hall is undoubtedly the largest and most significant monument to the western part of the square.

In the third place - Mikša´s House was acquired by the village in 1458. Its ground floor with one large and two adjacent glazed Gothic arcades is made of sandstone blocks - here is where the Tourist Information Center is housed. The last and smallest Empire House U Kohouta was bought by the town in 1838.

This house was bought from a city merchant in 1360, as an extension of the old town hall. It stands out for its orange color and its Renaissance window added in 1526, on the pediment of which is written the phrase: "PRAGA CAPUT REGNI" which translated comes to mean "PRAGUE CAPITAL OF THE KINGDOM". It is currently the headquarters of the Tourist Office.
