Lány is a municipality and village in Kladno District in the Central Bohemian Region of the Czech Republic.

The main landmark is the Lány Castle, known as the residence of the Czech and Czechoslovak presidents.

Tomáš Garrigue Masaryk, the first President of Czechoslovakia, lived here and is buried in Lány cemetery.

[4][5] The second oldest horse-drawn iron wagonway in continental Europe operated between Prague and Lány (originally planned to reach Plzeň) from 1831 until 1869.

[6] Lány is served by the railway station in Stochov, close to the municipal border.

During World War II, the castle was a residence of Emil Hácha, President of Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia, then it was used sporadically.

After the Velvet Revolution, the tradition was revived by Václav Havel, the first president of the Czech Republic.

[10] The Masaryk family tomb is located in the local cemetery, where, in addition to Tomáš and Charlotte, their children Jan and Alice are also buried.

It contains a collection of jerseys, ice hockey sticks, photos, pieces of equipment, publications, and medals.
