Traditional honey harvest in Rudolfinum


We would like to invite you to a honey party in Ceremony Hall, where beekeeper Augustin Uváčik will present his bee orchestra. You will learn why bees have always belonged to the Rudolfinum and where their symbol has been projected. You will also find out what the Ambrose Songs are and how such music affects bees. Admission is free.

Rudolfinum — Ceremony Hall

Learn from a specialist in rooftop beekeeping why bees have always belonged in the Rudolfinum. You will find out what the Ambrose Songs are and how such music affects bees. We will also reveal what it means to have a apiary on the roof of a national cultural monument.

In the Ceremony Hall, however, we will mainly be bottling honey! You will have the opportunity to try your hand at comb unwinding and see the tools that a beekeeper needs to do his job.

The event will take place from 15.30. You can arrive at any point during and leave when you feel you have learnt enough about beekeeping. The harvest will also include a last chance to visit the roof of the Rudolfinum before the planned renovation.

Afterwards, we recommend exploring our newly opened café.
