Beseda, Restaurant and cultural monument in Žižkov Square, Tábor, Czech Republic
Beseda is a restaurant located in an early 15th century building on Žižkov Square, overlooking the Old Town Hall and the surrounding historic townhouses. The space combines indoor seating with a terrace, and includes a basement area that houses both brewing equipment and museum exhibits about local beer production.
The building dates to the early 15th century and is known as U Lichviču, maintaining its original architectural character across centuries of occupation. Brewing in this location has deep roots in the town's past and continues as an active tradition.
The place serves as a working school, where students from the local vocational academy learn hospitality skills by interacting with real customers. This educational mission shapes how the restaurant operates and feels.
The restaurant accommodates around 130 guests indoors and 40 on the terrace, with straightforward access from the street and clear seating areas. The terrace location makes it easy to enjoy meals while watching the activity on the square below.
The basement brewery produces Lichvici beer using methods tied to the location's medieval past, making it the only beer continuously brewed in this specific place for centuries. Visitors can tour the brewing area and taste a product that directly connects to the town's heritage.
