HISTORY
The building named "At the golden wheel", which origins go back to the XIV. century is located in the picturesque street called Nerudova that without any doubt is the most known of Prague's historical streets. In past that was one of the principal streets of communications which lead to the castle and it is still these days the most beautiful and frequented way of Malá Strana. The building had acquired its importance toward the second half of the 16th century when it was repaired and modified after the great fire of Malá Strana, which in 1541 destroyed in only 3 hours two thirds of the district. At the end of the 17th century when the building was owned by a painter Kristian Dittman it was largely reconstructed and another floor was added. About a century later, in 1814, the building had been mentioned in the Land Register as a four floor building, as can be also seen on the famous Langweil´s model of Prague (Model of the city of Prague by Langweil, now deposited in the Prague City Museum.) which is dated 1826 – 1835. The palace called “At the Golden Wheel” is presented there in its today aspect. The building with its predominantly Baroque style has been carefully restored during the years 2002-2003 under the supervision of the Preservation Art Department with the purpose of renewing its original splendor.
