Gallery Lapidarium

In the very heart of Prague’s Old Town lies a place where the past meets the present – Galerie Lapidárium.

This unique gallery, managed by the Czech Baroque Foundation, offers a remarkable fusion of Baroque sculpture, historical traces of the past, and contemporary visual art.

Visitors can admire the works of prominent Baroque masters such as Ottavio Mosto and Matyáš Bernard Braun, whose sculptures represent the pinnacle of Czech Baroque art. The gallery walls also preserve historic graffiti – mysterious messages and markings left by visitors of centuries past, creating a fascinating dialogue between past and present art.

However, Lapidárium is not only a place of history. It regularly hosts exhibitions of contemporary art, which bring fresh energy into the space and create a striking contrast between the classical and the modern, the spiritual and the playful.

Part of the program is also the Lapidarium Chanson Stage, which presents chanson in all its forms – from intimate performances to creative fusions with other art genres.

Galerie Lapidárium is the perfect destination for lovers of art, history, and the mysterious atmosphere of old Prague. It offers not only the beauty of ancient sculptures but also a space for reflection on how art evolves and continues to serve as a universal language across centuries.
