Golden Tree Tavern House

Golden Tree Tavern House

Directions

An old Renaissance burgher house on Velké náměstí. In 1678 it is associated with Kryštof Hoffman, an engraver at the bishop's mint. Later the house belonged to the Kroměříž Piarist college and from 1824 to the Lasnausky merchant family.

During the session of the Imperial Diet in 1848, Minister Alexander Bach lived here. In 1865, when the house was owned by mayor Wolfgang Lasnausky, Miroslav Tyrš, the founder of the Sokol movement, stayed here. He came as a guest of the Moravan choral society, which was then consecrating its banner in the presence of guests from all over Moravia and Bohemia. The arcade of the house was restored in 1960.

The house is part of the Kroměříž urban heritage reservation.

Based on a text by Jindřich Spáčil for the memorial plaques of Kroměříž houses.
