A guide with a guide Kateřina Pousková will begin on Karlín Square, just opposite the Church of Sts. Cyril and Methodius and will continue in Prague's Karlín district. Subsequently, they will see many important classicist buildings that resemble the diverse history of Karlín, and also look at the places where the beautiful Rosenthal garden, which Karlín could visit at the end of the 18th century. There will also be a stop at the Karlín barracks, where they will see the remains of their faded glory. On the way he will also see the former Karlín Synagogue, which was founded here in 1861. The flood in 2002 brought Karlín again a significant transformation. On the banks of the Vltava, a whole district of new office buildings (Main Point Karlín, Danube House, Nile House) has been built, where it will be possible to learn that contemporary architecture may not be monotonous at all, as it may seem at first glance.
