About the venue: Kulturní dům Říp

Kulturní dům Říp stands on Husovo náměstí in a building commissioned in 1703-1709 by Mrs. Schmiedová as a seasonal manor house, likely designed by František Maxmilián Kaňka. Its resemblance to Bílina castle earned it the nickname "Bílinský zámeček"; from 1720 it belonged to the Roudnice branch of the Lobkowicz family. A theatre hall was added in 1878 to a design by Jan Zeyer. After a full reconstruction, the venue now houses a multi-purpose hall with retractable tiered seating, a 3D cinema, a café with a terrace overlooking the Bohemian Central Highlands, and spaces for balls, concerts and lectures.
