You will see houses designed by elite Czech architects: Jan Kotěra, his student Jan Krejcar and the Jewish duo Ernst Mühlstein & Viktor Fürth. The guide will tell a lot of true gossips about people who have influenced Czech history. We will follow the footsteps of the 1st Czechoslovakian president Tomáš Garrigue Masaryk, walk around the houses that served the family of the 1st Communist Czechoslovakian president Klement Gottwald, and you will also hear details about the biggest Central-European financial scandal in the interwar period.
