Czech Republic: One Site to Close, Another to Open in Prague Castle Complex

Authorities will close one of the Prague Castle complex’s most popular sites May 1 for a year to complete necessary repairs. The Golden Lane, named for the goldsmiths who once lived and worked there, is a narrow alley lined with one-room 16th-century houses, and, perhaps most notably, where Franz Kafka lived in 1916-17. But as one attraction closes, another opens: the Rosenberg Palace, another 16th-century structure with a frescoed chapel and Renaissance hall, will open to the public for the first time April 6.
