About Rudolfinum

The Rudolfinum is a neo-Renaissance building on Jan Palach Square by the Vltava, designed by Josef Zítek and his student Josef Schulz and opened on 8 February 1885. It is the home of the Czech Philharmonic and of the Galerie Rudolfinum. Its largest auditorium, Dvořák Hall, is one of the main venues of the Prague Spring festival; Antonín Dvořák conducted the Czech Philharmonic's first ever concert there on 4 January 1896. From 1919 to 1939 the building housed the Czechoslovak parliament.
