Event by: Rohlík s Paštikou Adventures
Location: Párek v rohlíku, Náměstí Míru 11, Praha 2
About event
Come and join us for a hike to Pardubice, a town smelling of gingerbread and forever associated with the famous Velká pardubická (Great Pardubice) steeplechase. The city lies in the Labe lowlands, in a landscape marked by meadows, deciduous forests and historic canals reminiscent of a big chateau park.
This Renaissance gate (The Green Gate) and tower is the dominant feature of the Pardubice city heritage zone. The façade is decorated with an embossed relief by Mikoláš Aleš, depicting the coat of arms of the Lords of Pardubice.
We will also visit the earliest crematorium in the Czech Republic, designed by architect Pavel Janák and artist František Kysela. The Rondo-cubist building from the 1920s is one of the most interesting examples of modern architecture in the city, and It also played its part in the famous Czech film ‘The Cremator’ (“Spalovač mrtvol”).
