It may seem like a big chateau, but Invalidovna was a baroque dormitory in operation from 1737 for war invalids, built by famous architect Kilián Ignác Dientzenhofer. It was damaged during the 2002 floods and only the front facade has been reconstructed since. In front of the building there is a very nice and tidy park.
Olšanské hřbitovy
After day in a busy city, a walk through the vast and calm Olšany Cemetery is a great idea! It is the largest graveyard in Prague, remarkable for its many art nouveau monuments. The cemetery has a calm and mysterious atmosphere, some parts of it are very old. Famous people such as Jan Palach (a student who set himself on fire in protest against apathy of people during communism), Klement Gottwald (the first communist president of Czechoslovakia), 19th-century writer Karel Havlíček Borovský, actors Rudolf Hrušínský and Jan Werich and many others are buried here.
Libeňský plynojem
A large metal ball which used to serve as a gas canister. You can not get inside, but it is still interesting to see it from the outside.
Franz Kafka's grave is signposted around 100m along the path to your right from the entrance. Men should cover their heads. The cemetery is closed on Saturdays.
Multifunctional auditorium for 3,000 people where different cultural events take place.
Národní památník na Vítkově
"Žižkov Monument", located at the top of Vítkov Hill. This immense equestrian statue was erected in 1950 to commemorate the Czech national hero Jan Žižka, who fought his most famous battle on this site and later had the hill and the neighbouring city renamed after himself. The scale of the monument is impressive enough, but the views of Žižkov (and the rest of Prague) from the top of the hill really make the climb worthwhile.
