Open air theatre

The open air theatre is located in the area of the former artillery redoubt, the youngest part of the Vyšehrad fortifications. If necessary, it was possible to control and shell the city from here. Today, it is the venue for theater performances, musical performances, and social events in the open air. Every year, it hosts the Metropolitan Summer of Acting Personalities and Vyšehrad Fencing. The space is available for rent.
