Garáže Klíčov, Bus garage complex in Vysočany, Prague, Czech Republic.
Garáže Klíčov is a bus depot in Vysočany, Prague, in the triangle formed by Letňanská, Čakovická and Kbelská streets. Its main hall, designed by Josef Zeman, covers a usable area of 120 × 90 metres with no internal supports and shelters 180 vehicles, with more buses parked on outdoor stands; repair workshops are also on the site.
Originally constructed in 1973 and designed by architect Josef Zeman, this garage complex was built as part of Prague's post-war urban infrastructure development to accommodate the growing needs of the city's expanding public bus network.
The depot keeps the museum bus Irisbus Citybus 12M no. 3251, moved here in 2019, and since 2017 also garages trolleybuses alongside the city buses. In the night of 5 to 6 June 2024 an attempted arson attack occurred in the garages and was investigated as a terrorist act.
