Kohoutův dům

Zastávka194

An Open Community Space in Chotěboř

There aren’t many buildings of historical value left on the main square of Chotěboř. But at no. 194, we find Kohoutův dům, which is the only building that has retained its appearance after the fire of 1832. As a result, it stands out as the square’s most interesting building. Colorful posters invite passerby to take part in various activities, such as workshops for children and adults, lectures, film screenings on human rights and ecology, readings, English lessons, exhibitions, and concerts, enlivening the shabby windows of the cultural heritage site.
