FAQ

By car

Arrival is possible primarily via 17. listopadu Street and Rudná Street, which provide quick access to the city’s main transport network.

Visitors may use the surrounding free public parking areas and the parking garages located directly within the DK POKLAD complex, on both the right and left sides of the building. However, parking capacity is limited, so we recommend using the shuttle bus or public transport whenever possible.

Parking garage: Poklad I. (Matěje Kopeckého Street × Komenského Street)

Parking garage: Poklad II. (Matěje Kopeckého Street × Čs. Exilu Street)

The parking system is ticketless and cashless and does not print receipts. Receipts are available at www.okas.cz or www.receo.net.

Before using the parking facility and subsequently paying for parking, we recommend reading the instructions provided at the parking garages and using the web application www.ostrava.parkum.cz/.
