Originally Reneissance tower rebuilt in the Baroque style hosts a permanent exposition dedicated to fires
The tower was built in 1658 on what remained of the original Renaissance tower, destroyed by a flood in 1655. It supplied water to the lower New Town of Prague and served its original purpose until 1877. The Prague New Mill Water Tower has undergone a complete renovation, and now houses an exhibition called "Prague is Burning" about Prague's fires in the past and a history of Prague's fire-fighters.
