Piaristická kolej v Brandýse nad Labem is a two-storey Baroque building, located at the address Na Vyšíší castle no. 185. It was built in 1785 and served as a seat of a piarist school from 1786 to 1872. After the school's demise, the building went through several purposes, for example during the first republic it worked as a shelter for blind girls. Since 1966 it has been protected as a cultural monument.

The piarists came to Brandýs nad Labem in 1759 when the widowed township Magdaléna Budínská founded a religious house of priests of the order of religious schools. After the purchase of a house in Prague Street, piarists settled down and started their activities, with Magdaléna Budínská setting up a fund of 4000 gold to support the school system. The piarists gradually took over teaching and set up a separate writing department, leading to an increase in the number of pupils.

Architecturally, the piarist track is a rectangular two-storey building with a baroque front. The main eastern side has seven axes, with a central portal closed with a semicircular arch and is divided by a plinth, a profiled floor ledge and a main ledge with a prism roof. The roof is a mansard with skylights, which gives the building a characteristic view.

After the school's demise in 1872, the piarist college was used for various social purposes. During the first republic she served as a shelter for blind girls, which shows her adaptability and importance in the community. The building's ownership changed over time, but its historical value remained unquestioned.

The key event in the formation of the piarist college was the efforts of Magdalene Budinski and other supporters who secured the arrival of piarists in Brandýs. Thanks to their efforts, the foundation for education was established and the school became an important part of local life.

Today, the piarist college in Brandýse nad Labem is protected as a cultural monument. Its history and architecture attract visitors who are interested in the Czech Baroque building and its educational traditions. To remember the importance of such monuments is the key to understanding the cultural heritage of the region. Visiting a piarist college means not only exploring its history, but also appreciating the importance it had for the local community and how it adapted to changes over the years.

Welcome to Brandýs nad Labem, where you are now in front of a unique historical monument - piarist college. This baroque building, built on the shores of a beautiful Elbe valley, is undoubtedly enchanting you with its elegant two-storey facade. Look up and you will see the harmonious symmetry of smooth rows of windows that are amplified by the colorful colours of the facade.

The Piarist College was founded in 1786 as a school seat founded by piarists - the order of priests active in education. This monastery order was called to Brandýs thanks to the efforts of Magdalene Budínský and other local supporters who valued the high standard of education. This monastery became a learning centre for many generations of young men, to whom they provided not only knowledge, but also moral and spiritual guidance.

The architecture of the building is full of details that deserve attention. Take a look at the elegant portal with beautiful cuts that decorate the facade and welcome you to this historic place. The interior of the building is full of the atmosphere of the past, even though today's visitors no longer experience it as students. Doubt the smooth walls and elegant stairs that once lead to classes full of life.

Among the key personalities associated with this track are Magdaléna Budínská and Veronika Dušičková. These important figures played a role in the establishment and development of the school, which became not only a place of learning, but also a centre of the community.

The interesting thing about this place is its transformation after the school's demise. After 1872 the building was adapted for various social purposes, including the shelter of blind girls during the first republic. This new life cycle shows the ability of the monument to adapt to the needs of time and remain relevant to the inhabitants of Brandýsa.

Seasonal recommendations

Spring in Brandýse nad Labem brings awakening nature, which surrounds the campus of the piarist college. The trees are packed with fresh greenery and flowering shrubs provide the surrounding freshness and color. The light is soft in this period and the days gradually elongate allow longer walks. The atmosphere is calm and full of hope, ideal for thoughtful visits. For practical comfort we recommend layered clothes because spring weather can be variable and cold morning alternates warmer afternoons. The best time to visit is in the morning when the air is fresh and the light is still blinding. Avoid the rain that is frequent in this season and carry a light waterproof jacket.

Summer offers the longest days and brightest light that reveals architectural details of the building in full beauty. Green vegetation is in full bloom, creating a pleasant contrast to historical development. The warm evenings allow a visit even later when the city calms down and the atmosphere becomes romantic. The main summer season can mean a greater frequency of people around, so it is good to avoid high afternoon hours. Clothes should be light and breathable, suitable for higher temperatures. We recommend visiting the memory in the morning or in the evening when it is less noisy and the sun does not shine directly in the eyes, which allows better photography and admiration of details.

Autumn brings a unique atmosphere of gold color and cool air to Brandýs nad Labem. Leaves on trees around the track change color into shades of yellow, orange and red, creating a picturesque background for visiting. The light is lower and warmer, which highlights the historical nature of the object. Freezing mornings and warmer afternoons require layers of clothing to be easily adapted to temperature changes. Autumn rains may be common, so it is advisable to carry an umbrella or waterproof shoes. The best time to visit is the late afternoon, when light breaks through colored trees and creates dramatic shadows and glare on the facades.

Winter brings peace and silence, which surrounds historical memory. The snow, if it falls, will make the surrounding area beautiful with a white blanket and highlight the contours of the buildings. Short days and low sun create specific, often dramatic lighting conditions that give place a mysterious character. The atmosphere is cold, but the inner heat of the historical environment may be a contrast to the outdoor frost. Clothing must be warm and laminated, including winter jacket, gloves and hat. The best time to visit is late afternoon when temperatures are slightly rising and the light is brightest. In advent time the surroundings can be revived by Christmas decorations, which adds winter walks around the complex to the charm.
