The exhibition “Prague – Vienna – Context” is open!

The exhibition is taking place in the premises of the baroque Clam-Gallas Palace, which is an unusually suitable place for it, since it was built by constructors from Prague, according to the project of the Viennese architect Johann Bernhard Fischer von Erlach.

Across twenty halls of the palace, you can follow the common journey of Prague and Vienna through hundreds of historical documents, maps, plans, works of art, architectural models and interactive projections. These artifacts draw a line from the first connection of the two cities under the rule of the Czech king Premysl Otakar II, through the stages of Prague dominance under the rule of Emperor Charles IV and Rudolph II and conversely, the slower development of Prague under the shadow of the dazzling rise of Vienna as the capital and residential city of the Habsburg Monarchy, up to the modern republican present of both metropolises in the 20th and 21st centuries.

Do not hesitate and visit the unique exhibition, it is open until October 24, 2024.
