Riding School
The Baroque facade of the Prague Castle Riding School from the late 17th century forms nearly entire one
side of the streed called U Prasneho mostu (By the Powder Bridge), which runs to Prague Castle from
the northern side, via Deer Moat.
In the mid- 20th century the Riding School was converted into an exhibition hall.
At the same time garages were built on the area of the open summer riding school. A garden was laid out on their roofing which affords an interesting and unusual view of St. Vitus Cathedral and a part of the northern bulwarks of Prague Castle.
The largest church treasury in the Czech lands and one of the most extensive in Europe, the Treasury of St. Vitus traces its beginnings back to the early Middle Ages.
