National Theatre - The theatre building was built by the Czechs during the Czech National Revival from collections because they wanted a theatre where performances could be performed in Czech. The theatre first opened in 1881, but 4 months later it was destroyed by fire. Therefore, the Czechs organized a new collection and used this money to build a new theatre, which you can still admire by the Vltava River today. The National Theatre is home to four artistic ensembles: drama, opera, ballet and Laterna magika.

The church also houses a museum of nativity scenes or baby Jesus clothes.

Lennon's Wall - A wall in Lesser Town, opposite the French Embassy. After 1980, it became a symbol of freedom and resistance against totalitarianism. During communism, young people wrote memories of John Lennon on it, and the police painted everything over in white. Today, anyone can write anything on the wall. Even though you won't usually read anything interesting on the wall anymore because of the scribbles and stickers, you will definitely like the peaceful atmosphere of the place and its history.
