This Television Tower was built between 1985 and 1992. Designed by the architect Václav Aulický and the structural engineer Jiří Kozák, it stands high above the city's traditional skyline from its position on top of a hill in the district of Žižkov, from which it takes its name. The tower is an example of high-tech architecture.
In 2000, sculptures by Czech artist David Černý of babies crawling up and down were temporarily attached to the tower's
pillars. The sculptures were admired by many and were returned in 2001
as a permanent installation. Please have a look at some photos:
