About event
A cycle of lectures called in Klementinum has been measured ... It is an accompanying program to the exhibition of the same name, which you can see in the student courtyard, which reflects the respectable 250 years of temperature measurement in this exceptional Baroque area. June 2025
Jan Daňhelka: Klementinum - 250 years of weather measurement in Prague
Station in Klementinum is the oldest meteorological station in the Czech Republic and one of the oldest in the world. The measurements have been carried out without interruption since 1775, but the first beginnings are even older. The lecture will show the reasons for the measurement of how it took place in the past, who took care of the measurement, how the first meteorological networks were created and what interesting circumstances of 250 years of measurement history were accompanied. June 2025
René Tydlitate: From stepping thermometers to digital sensors - a new view of the Clementinum instrumental series
The weather today people follow by digital sensors and computers, but in the past it was different. The lecture will show what devices have been used in Clementinum from the 18th century to the present. Visitors will return to the time when the oldest Czech meteorological station Tikaly is clockwork, in the instruments they tightened human hair, moved mercury molecules or portrayed pressure, temperature and humidity.

Ilona Zusková: 250 years of data - what shows the weather history in Prague
Records from Klementinum are a set of data that captures the weather development in Prague from the end of the 18th century to the present. The lecture will explain how this data help scientists understand climate transformations, will show the most interesting period when the weather in Prague has significantly deviated from the average, and how this information is used in analyzes of current climate change. Listeners will learn what role the long -term observations in meteorology and hydrology play. June 2025
Jan Daňhelka: Clementinum and Water - 200 years of observation of the Vltava level in Prague
Vltava has been an integral part of Prague and has been affecting people's lives for centuries. In Clementinum, regular monitoring of the Vltava level began more than 200 years ago. Thanks to these long rows of observations, it is now known how the river levels changed during floods, drought or spring melting of snow. The lecture will present how and why these measurements began, how the technique of water level monitoring and what lessons brings this data for today, when the weather is increasingly faced.
