On Thursday, 20 April, from 19:30, you are cordially invited to the Václav Havel Library for a debate on the topic of transformations and historical traces in the space of Prague's most ancient space.
In the 20th century, a series of architectural competitions were held to redesign the area. However, Old Town Square was also transformed during this period as a result of cultural and religious conflicts. Symbolic representations were manifested by several different monuments and memorial plaques that were unveiled here during this period. The topic of the debate will include, among other things, disputes over their erection or re-erection. The guests of the debate will be architectural historian Zdeněk Lukeš, historian Petr Koura and art historian Jan Royt, moderated by Petr Blažek.
