Kolowrat Palace

The Kolowrat Palace (Czech: Kolowratský palác) is a baroque complex of two Gothic buildings. The Kolowrat family bought the first building in 1670 and the second one 1697.[1] in It is located at Ovocný trh 4 a 6 in the Old Town part of the Prague 1 district in Prague, Czech Republic.

The palace originally belonged to the Kolowrat family, and it is now part of the Kolowrat houses group. The original vaults from the early Baroque period are located on the ground floor and on the first floor the rooms are decorated with Baroque-painted wood ceilings. Count Jindrich Kolowrat-Krakowsky rented the Kolowrat Palace to the National Theatre in 1993.[2] The attic of the palace houses the Kolowrat Theatre, one of the scenes of the National Theatre.[3]
