The Podskalí Customs House at Výtoň is a Gothic building with an exhibition on life in the Vltava riverside district of Podskalí, raftsmanship, timber rafting and the vanished quarter below Vyšehrad. A branch of the City of Prague Museum.

Why visit this place?

• The name Vyton recalls the toll collected by cutting out part of the timber floated down the Vltava from Vyssi Brod.
• Together with the church of Saints Cosmas and Damian, the customs house from around 1500 is the only surviving trace of the fishing village of Podskali.
• Allow roughly 45 minutes; the programme is aimed at lower primary, upper primary and secondary students.
• There are 230 more tips within 25 km, enough to build a full-day trip.
• The whole programme is indoors, so rain is not a problem.
• There is a dedicated programme for school groups, not just general admission.
