Konvikt
Konvikt is a restaurant in Prague housed in a historic building dating back to the 12th century. The space features old stone walls, wooden furniture, and warm lighting across both the ground floor and a basement level with rustic character.
The building was constructed in the 12th century and initially served as lodging for students and academics. Over the centuries, it evolved into a gathering place for important discussions and eventually became the restaurant it is today.
The name Konvikt comes from its past as a dormitory for students and scholars. Visitors can sense this academic heritage in the old walls and traditional setup, which still create a thoughtful, studious feeling throughout the space.
The restaurant is located in Prague's Old Town, easily accessible after walking through narrow streets and historic squares. It stays open late into the night, making it a good option for visitors looking for a meal after sightseeing.
The basement dining area offers a special experience with stone walls and historic atmosphere that transports visitors back through the centuries. This hidden space beneath the main floor is less known but a favored spot for those seeking a more secluded setting.
