Television Center Kavčí hory

At the end of 1958, the Czechoslovak Television (ČST) submitted to the Prague Planning Commission a proposal for the construction of a television complex in Kavčí hory,[2] the investment task of building this area was approved by the Czechoslovak government in February 1960.

[6] However the construction work was stoppedcin January 1963 by decision of state authorities because other buildings were prioritized.

[7] During the summer of 1963, the plenum of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Czechoslovakia decided that the construction of the area on the Kavčí Hory should continue in 1965,[8][9] In October 1970, the first part of Prague's Television Center Kavčí hory with two studios started running.

[10][11] In 1971, the federal government included the completion of the complex on the Kavčí hory among the mandatory investment tasks, while 2,000 m2 of studio space was to be handed over by the end of 1975.

[15] A separate Television Newspaper Building with three news complexes was put into operation during the first half of 1979, and in the following year a music studio, for example, was opened in the Kavčí hory.
