Kramář Villa — Open Day

Visitors will have the chance to step into spaces where key figures of both Czech and international politics have met. In addition to a guided tour of the villa’s grand interiors, guests can also enjoy a unique panoramic view of the Vltava River and Prague’s historic city center.

The villa of Karel Kramář (1860—1937), the first Prime Minister of Czechoslovakia, is undoubtedly a striking landmark of the Letná panorama. Although architecturally difficult to categorize — blending Neo-Baroque style with distinct Art Nouveau elements — it is considered one of the most notable examples of Prague’s villa architecture. The villa was built between 1911 and 1915, based on a design by architect Friedrich Ohmann. The final appearance of the interiors was strongly influenced by the taste of Kramář’s Russian wife, Nadezhda Nikolayevna. In the 1990s, the villa underwent a complete renovation and today regularly hosts prominent world leaders and serves as the venue for official receptions held by the Prime Minister.
