Peter the Great House

The Peter the Great House stands as a three-story half-timbered structure with a bronze plaque depicting Russian Tsar Peter the Great on its facade.

Built between 1706 and 1709, the building underwent several reconstructions, including major renovations in 1896 by architect Johann Matusch and in 1922 by Johann Heinrich Vieth.

The structure received its name from tenant Johann Petter and later housed both a restaurant named Petr and a cinema cafe during the mid-1900s.

The building sits 500 meters from the Hot Spring, with access via Buses 1 and 4 stopping at Lázně III station, followed by a short walk.

The bronze plaque commemorates Tsar Peter the Great's assistance to masons during the construction of another local building, U páva, in 1711.
