Nice old building worthy to see itself, but there are usually some exhibition placed.

The building itself is beautiful, the exhibitions are usually very interesting, though not always petfectly orginized. You need to put some effort in orienting yourself.

Visited for an exhibition titled “Sounds / Codes / Images – Audio Experimentation in the Visual Arts”. (July 2019) The building and the interiors are beautiful; the aforementioned exhibition might be interesting for music/modern art geeks — as a music enthusiast myself, I found parts of the exhibition a little boring and some parts were interesting and worth while. IMHO, it’s not a “must see” exhibition — so if you’re on a hurry or a budget, you might pass on it. Future exhibitions to be hold in this building could be more interesting.

Went during the Heroin and Crystal exhibit. Trippy awesome art, real feel of the 90s.

The first documented mention of the house comes from the year 1363, when it belonged to the burgher Henslin Pesold of Cheb. In the following years, the different owners alternated here. Today's house is the rest of a larger object dating back to the mid-14th century and was probably the temporary residence of Eliška Přemyslovna and Jan Lucemburský after their arrival in Prague. The residence reached the location of today's house at the Black Elephant at the corner of Týnská Street and partly at the Golz-Kinsky Palace. The house was rebuilt in the 15th-19th century. During these years, the Gothic palace shape was practically lost. The house inderwent extensive regotization between 1975 and 1987. During this reconstruction the Gothic facade was uncovered and restored instead of the Baroque one. První doložená zmínka o domu pochází z roku 1363, kdy patřil měšťanovi Henslinu Pesoldovi z Chebu. V následujících letech dům střídal vlastníky, a to jak bohaté měšťany, tak drobné šlechtice. Dnešní dům je zbytkem větší residence z doby před polovinou 14. století a pravděpodobně sloužil jako dočasné obydlí Elišky Přemyslovny a Jana Lucemburského po jejich přistěhování do Prahy. Residence dosahovala až k místu dnešního domu U Černého slona na rohu Týnské ulice a Týnské uličky a částečně také na místě Paláce Golz-Kinských. Dům byl přestavován v 15.–19. století. Během těchto let se prakticky vytratila gotická podoba paláce. V letech 1975–1987 proběhla rozsáhlá regotizace. Při této rekonstrukci byla odkryta a obnovena gotická fasáda místo dosavadní barokní.

It is one of a very few original gothic houses in town and it is very well preserved. I enjoyed wondering around the rooms and trying to imagine how life would look like inside this house many centuries ago. Unfortunately the house is utilised for exhibitions and the one in place when I visited was not really worth it. If you are on a budget or don't have a lot of time you can skip it
