New ice hockey Hall of Fame opens in Prague

Just three days before the World Ice Hockey Championships get underway in Prague and Ostrava, a new Czech hockey Hall of Fame has been opened in the centre of Prague on Nekázanka Street.

The previous Czech hockey Hall of Fame, which was part of the Galerie Harfa shopping mall, closed abruptly at the end of last May after eight years due to financial issues.

Along with the stone Hall of Fame, a digital version has also been launched.
