Prague Castle Administration planning to revitalize Golden Lane

The Prague Castle Administration will launch a competition for new leases of houses in Prague’s renowned Golden Lane. It wants to revive traditional crafts in the picturesque houses lining the historic street. There are sixteen small houses in the Golden Lane, each with a different-coloured facade, the smallest with a floor area of just fourteen square meters. Over the centuries, the lane has undergone a number of reconstructions. The houses were inhabited until the Second World War. The one-time dwellings for the castle’s grooms and servants have become a major tourist attraction.
