Prague Hotel At The Black Star - house history 

House at the Black Star (Small Nostitz House), number 177/1 (Seminarska Street 6, Prague 1 - Old Town) Late Renaissance building from the beginning of the 17th Century.

The building, which had already been recorded before 1400, acquired its current Renaissance appearance at around the beginning of the 17th century. Without a doubt, the basic construction of the main building, the eastern wing and the back area date back to the Middle Ages.These areas were not all built at the same time; the back part is newer.

In 1538 the building was divided into two parts; the left part underwent considerable reconstruction in the second half of the 16th Century. In 1622 integrated again and immediately subsequent to that the street side facade and the right rear area were reconstructed.

More recent classicist reconstruction consisted of making a staircase, while the attic behind the Renaissance gable is also of newer origin.

In 1620, on the 19th of May, Marta, wife of Jan Soukup of Grosperk, confessed to owing 500 kop to Matous Kostrauch and gave her home, the House at the Black Star as security.

In 1622, on the 25th of February, the House at the Black Star was bought for 550 Czech kop by Cyril Agricola, the heir of Jan Agricola, an expeditor at the Czech office from Marta Soukupova of Grossperkus.

In 1765 earl Bedrich Nostic-Rieneck (4.10.1728-19.11.1796), patron of a cuirassier regiment and General of Cavalry, later the Emperor's secretary, president of the Royal War-Council and Knight of Golden Fleece, inherited this house from his father Frantisek Vaclav (1697-20.9. 1765) .
