Obecní dům - Smetanova síň
The largest area of the Municipal House is the central Smetana Hall, accessible from the foyer on the first floor. By naming the concert hall, Prague paid tribute to the creator of Czech modern music, Bedřich Smetana. Of the plastic decoration, the most remarkable are the stucco groups Vyšehrad and Slavonic Dances on the sides of the stage by Ladislav Šaloun. The sculptor thus happily solved the question of commemorating the second genius of Czech music, Antonín Dvořák. To Smetana's Vyšehrad from the cycle of symphonic poems My Homeland, the character of the legendary Lumír, accompanied by a harp, narrates the myth of the homeland, while the opposite dancing couple is a motif taken from Dvořák's Slavonic Dances. In the interior of the Smetana Hall, however, there is a reminder of other Czech composers, whose portrait medallions are located on the bust of the lodges and the balcony.
Paintings of the ceiling panels and wall paintings by Karel Špilar contribute to the overall airy and at the same time festive impression of the space. Especially the monumental murals Music, Poetry, Dance and Drama are among the author's best works ever.
Smetana's Hall is primarily a concert hall for 1,200 listeners, in which since its opening the world's most important ensembles and performers have performed, and occasionally various social events take place here - especially traditional balls or popular representative gala dinners. The Prague Spring music festival is regularly opened and closed in the Smetana Hall.

Reduta Jazz Club
This is one of the top ten jazz clubs in the Czech Republic. A revolutionary music and theater scene. A cultural monument, the oldest of its kind in Central Europe. And above all, a place where you will have an unforgettable musical experience amongst fantastic musicians, presidents, and other top public figures.
Since its foundation in 1957, the club has been the main home of jazz throughout the Czech Republic. But it did not achieve real world renown until after the Velvet Revolution, under the auspices of Pragokoncert Bohemia, a leading art agency, which made one of the three oldest Central European clubs world-class and introduced the club to an international audience and the art community.

Rudolfinum – Dvořáková síň
The world-famous concert hall has been the home stage of the Czech Philharmonic since the orchestra’s very first public performance on 4 January 1896, when it played here under the baton of Antonín Dvořák. The hall served its purpose until 1918 when a decision was taken to convert it into a plenary room for the new Czechoslovak parliament. Concert activities returned to Dvořák Hall in 1940–1942 under the project of architects Antonín Engel and Bohumír Kozák. Since then the hall has not seen any significant changes. Its central element is the organ, built according to Zítek’s and Schulz’s plans by Wilhelm Sauer from Frankfurt an die Oder.

Rudolfinum – Sukova síň
The most recently added Rudolfinum hall was built between 1940 and 1942 under the project of architects Antonín Engel and Bohumír Kozák. This smaller concert hall, whose construction was carried out simultaneously with interventions in the adjacent Dvořák Hall, was decorated in a style inspired by Zítek’s and Schulz’s original designs, which makes it fit perfectly within the original concept of the building.
