The small town of Chodová Planá is best known for the Chodovar Brewery, the oldest in West Bohemia.

"Skalnikovy sady" park dominates the town and is one of the most popular among tourists. It was created at the end of the 19th century at the same time as the town.

Visitors can enjoy not only artworks but also film screenings dedicated to the life and work of the exhibiting artists. The combination of 19th-century architecture with modern art creates a unique atmosphere for an unforgettable cultural experience. The gallery’s curator is Alena Mrovcová.

Opening hours: daily 2:00–5:00 p.m.
