The Myslbek Shopping Gallery is a passage between the New and Old Town connecting the busy street Na Příkopě with Ovocný trh.
The Myslbek building, opened in 1996, bears its name after the famous sculptor Josef Václav Myslbek. On the facade of the building on Na Příkopě street you will find a remarkable metal gate from stainless steel weighing 8 tons. Its two gigantic sliding wings symbolizing the gate between the Old and New Prague open every day and after the closing hours of the shopping gallery they close again. The second gate, designed by Czech sculptor Karel Nepraš and leading to Ovocný trh is interesting because of the bronze heads adorning it. The heads pointing in all directions should symbolize shopping crowds.
