The Martinický palace on the Hradčanské square, newly opened to the public, offers the chance to view its interiors, to rent its rooms for various events, or to attend some of the events organised here. The Martinický palace is one of the most beautiful Renaissance buildings in Prague.

There are guided tours which provide a commentary on this exceptionally well-preserved example of European art and Renaissance housing taking place here. There are original sgrafitto paintings with motifs from the Old Testament, late Renaissance painted girder ceilings and wall fresco paintings. The interior includes a typical dining room, study room and bedroom. Visitors can thus imagine what life looked like back in the Renaissance era (see how the rich people lived 500 years ago).

In the Martinický palace stable, there is a Museum of historical automatic music machines, mechanical gramophones and phonographs from 1870-1940; any of the exhibited machines can be shown in action.
