Žižkov Television Tower

The Žižkov Television Tower is a transmitter tower in Prague that was built between 1985 and 1992. Designed by architect Václav Aulick and structural engineer Ji Kozák, it rises far over the city's traditional skyline from a hill in the district of ikov, from which it derives its name. The tower exemplifies high-tech architecture.

Many visitors recognize the rocket-shaped monument with the baby sculptures crawling up the sides (courtesy of controversial Czech sculptor David ern). Most people are unaware of the entertainment possibilities available within. An observation platform provides a different perspective than the usual Old Town or Malá Strana vistas. Oblaca offers fine eating in a restaurant or bar atmosphere, with excellent service and presentation. The One Room Hotel is a huge suite amid the stars that offers a one-of-a-kind place to stay. And, of course, seeing the tower from afar, lit up at night in the Czech flag's red, white, and blue colors, is completely free.
