Vladislav had this convent built for the Order of the Premonstratensians in 1140, damaged several times by war and fire, and then rebuilt, its current appearance dates back to the Baroque period (17th and 18th centuries). After the dissolution of the religious orders in 1952, the monastery was transformed into a museum of national literature that boasts a magnificent library. This confirms its role as a cultural centre, which it has been since the first years of its creation.

Les deux salles de la bibliothèque sont absolument sublimes toutes les deux, dans des styles totalement différents . Celle de la philosophie flamboyante et richement décorée, celle de la théologie beaucoup plus sobre mais avec une voûte plafond spectaculaire. Un peu cher pour la visite, 120 couronnes surtout qu il faut payer 50 couronnes de plus pour pouvoir prendre des photos

Bel édifice situé après le château et proche de la colline de Petrin. La ballade pour l'admirer vaut le détour.
N°22 tram stop Pohorelec leads to this beautiful monastery set even higher than the Prague castle.
