National Theatre
The theatre a nation paid for coin by coin, burned to the walls, and paid for twice.
Opening hours, admission and address
- Address
- Národní 2
- Opening hours
- Mon–Fri09:00–18:00
- Sat–Sun10:00–18:00
- Admission
- The hours above are the box office. You see the building itself on a performance ticket or on a guided tour, and the tours run on published dates rather than daily — book online, meet at the Národní street entrance a few minutes early, and expect no admission once one has started. On performance nights the theatre's own box office opens shortly before curtain, and gallery seats sell for a fraction of the stalls.
