Spanish Hall, Ceremonial room in Prague Castle, Czech Republic
The Spanish Hall measures 43 meters in length, 21 meters in width, and 12 meters in height, featuring ornate chandeliers with 2,000 electric lights.
Construction of the hall began in 1602 under Emperor Rudolph II, with Italian architect Giovanni Maria Filippi designing the space for imperial sculpture collections.
The hall serves as a central venue for presidential receptions, diplomatic ceremonies, and classical music concerts within the New Royal Palace complex.
Public access to the Spanish Hall occurs only twice per year, during special openings in May and October alongside other representation rooms.
The name originates from the Spanish horse stables located directly beneath the hall, reflecting the architectural layout of Prague Castle.
