Last November, the capital city’s long battle over Pražská tržnice’s ownership proved the municipality victorious, meaning the future of the behemoth market and its accompanying grounds now lay in the hands of the city. What the metropolis decided to do with the industrial-compound-turned-marketplace will determine its future place and function in the city. The market complex, a former slaughterhouse, is nestled between the Vltava river and Holešovice, a young and hip neighborhood marked with museums and artistic spaces. This advantageous location provides Pražská tržnice with an enormous amount of untapped potential. Currently overgrown with weeds and passed over by most, the market grounds could serve as a bridge between the new and old Prague, inhabiting the space of both an evolving marketplace and creative cultural center. Slowly, the grounds are tapping into this potential. In April 2019, seven months before the courts came to their conclusion in the case against the former renters of the market, Delta Center, the city of Prague, led by Deputy Mayor Pavel Vyhnánek, began implementing changes to the landscape of the former slaughterhouse and current mish-mosh of markets, retailers, and restaurants. The first things to go were the dilapidated DIY market stalls located between the...

The farmer’s markets at Náplavka are reopening on February 1st after a brief winter break The Náplavka market, in its eleventh season, has proven popular with both local residents and tourist, especially when the weather by the waterfront at Rašínovo nábřeží is pleasant. “During the first market this year, there will be no honest and handmade sausages and sausages from Mr. Marounek, craft pâtés and pickled meat from Plzák z Plzně. You can taste and buy the popular cannoli and cakes from a Karlovy Vary confectionery, meringues and other delicacies from Krámek U Andělky bakery,” said Jiří Sedláček, Chairman of Archetyp Association, who runs the Náplavka farmers’ market. Mr. Sedláček also co-founded the Association of Farmer’s Markets, which defines the ethics and criteria for sales and products, overseeing the origin, transparency, and selection of traditional Czech products for markets.

Prague City Hall is trying to fight the visual smog and has prepared new rules to restore the historic heart of the city. Because of the advertisement display, the city center is already avoided by professional photographers. “Hundreds of photographers send us photos. But Karlova Street in the center, for example, is not very photographed,” says David Černý, writer and founder of the photographic project Miluju Prahu. “There’s one signboard next to another, it’s like Times Square. It’s all about the people who run it,” he added. In December, the municipality has prepared rules for marking establishments that will help reduce visual smog. “For example, we do not want the shop windows to be covered by 100 percent or blinking inscriptions. If a shop has an advertisement display behind the glass, it is no longer affected legislation, but the visual impression from the street is exactly the same. Prague 1 has already approved it, the other city districts will probably do the same,” said City Councilor Hana Třeštíková (Praha sobě). “We do not want different advertisements and other visuals or objects that parasitize public spaces in Prague,” added the Mayor Zdeněk Hřib last September. According to the new rules, the...
