U modré štiky, Tenement and movie theater in Old Town, Prague.

The building at the intersection of Karlova and Liliová streets features both residential spaces and a cinema establishment within its walls.

Opening its doors in September 1907, U modré štiky marked its place in history as the first permanent cinema in Prague under V. Ponrepo's management.

The structure takes its name from a blue pike painting that served as the building's distinguishing mark, referencing a former establishment at this location.

The cinema presents a combination of Czech and international films with various subtitle options, maintaining its role in Prague's entertainment landscape.

Local stories tell of King Wenceslas IV and his magician Žito frequently gathering at a pub that previously existed at this exact location.
