Named after Rudolf II and built in neo-classical style between 1876 and 1884, the "House of Artists" originally housed an art gallery, museum and concert hall. In 1918 it became home to the Czechoslovak Parliament but was closed when the Nazis invaded in 1938. Returned to the Czechs in 1946, it's now the base of the Czech Philharmonic Orchestra and has been designated as a concert hall with excellent acoustics. Top exhibits of photo and avant-garde art are often held in the huge building which dominates Jan Palach Square.
I loved that it was a short climbing wall because you could get to the top easily and there is a great view when you get there.
