Festival Open house will open interesting buildings from history and today

Prague - For architecture lovers, today in Prague, thirty buildings will open their doors, which are usually not accessible to the public. The two-day Open House festival begins, inspired by a similar event abroad, aiming to showcase not only significant historical buildings but also modern and contemporary ones.
State and government offices, gallery spaces, church monuments, administrative buildings, residential houses, and structures that have been repurposed from original industrial buildings will be open. Participating in the festival are, for example, Kramář's Villa and the Invalidovna, which garner significant public interest each time they open.
The power plant at Štvanice, St. Agnes Monastery, the functionalist House of Trade Unions, buildings by Karel Prager in Emauzy, where the Institute for Planning and Development of Prague is located today, buildings of the Ministry of Agriculture and Industry, the Dancing House, and some of the newest constructions like Main Point and Danube House in Karlín, Holešovice's ArtGen, or Florentinum in Florence will also be opened.
The buildings will be open today and on Sunday from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM. A printed catalog is available for interested visitors, which can also be found on the page www.openhousepraha.cz. The information center will be located in the Fusion Hotel on Jindřišská Street; some of its rooms will also be available for visitors to tour. The festival was founded in 1992 in London as an effort to strengthen the relationship of the lay public with their place and city.
