Letňany is an area of Prague, Czech Republic. It was founded in 1307, and became part of Prague in 1968. It has been part of the Prague 9 administrative district since 2001, having previously been in the local government district of Prague 18, and it has its own cadastral area (also called "Prague 18"). There is a large shopping mall, "Obchodní centrum Letňany", which has a shopping area in excess of 125,000 m2.[1]
Letňany was the site of the aircraft industry (Avia and Letov), but as the industry gradually declined Letňany became a mostly residential district. There are two airports – the non-public international[citation needed] Letňany Airport and Kbely military airport.
Nearby Letňany metro station opened in May 2008, on the new extension of Line C on the Prague Metro.
The Air Accidents Investigation Institute has its head office in Letňany.[2]
The place has also been used as the venue for some big concerts, including AC/DC, Ed Sheeran, Rolling Stones, or Guns N' Roses, and Metallica, Rammstein and more.
