Křenovka, Homestead in Žižkov, Czech Republic.

Křenovka is a preserved homestead in eastern Prague's Žižkov district that shows features of traditional Czech farm architecture. The property contains studio spaces where contemporary artists work on projects and display their creations.

Křenovka stands on the site of a chapel to St Dismas built in the early 18th century by Count Kuperwald and abolished in 1786. In 1787 the New Town councillor Antonín Jan Douša bought the chapel at auction and converted it into an inn; Antonín Krenn acquired it in 1820 and laid out orchards around it. The chapel and inn were demolished in 1845 for the Northern State Railway, and the business moved to the present house of the 1840s, later a railway-ticket printing works.

The building now houses Čítárna Unijazz, which holds lectures, concerts, author readings and regular chess evenings, the Trať 42 Ateliéry studios of young artists, and the Tanec Praha dance company with its rehearsal hall. Křenovka is a regular venue of Open House, Mezidvorky, Landscape Festival and Zažít město jinak.

Křenovka stands on the north side of Husitská Street at No. 42, west of Miranka, on the boundary between Žižkov and the New Town. The building is cut off from the surrounding urban fabric by the railway tracks of the Prague junction, so approach it on foot from Husitská. Its halls host events of Open House, Mezidvorky, Landscape Festival and Zažít město jinak.

The homestead's name comes from Antonín Krenn, the Prague burgher who bought the pub in 1820 and planted orchards around it. His Krenovka park held a carousel whose locomotive, named Bohemia, pulled eighteen small wagons; a fire was lit inside the mock engine, the locomotive whistled and the turning wheels rumbled.
