Art Nouveau
Behind the origins of the Art Nouveau style at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries was a desire for the harmonious expression of a “total work of art”. Today it is precisely Art Nouveau buildings that are an essential part of many Czech cities and are among the most beautiful structures that modern architecture brought to the Czech lands. Let yourself be enchanted by the elegant palaces, hotels, and also the paintings and jewellery that have become an inseparable part of Czech culture. Discover the stories behind such magnificent buildings as the Municipal House in Prague and revel in their unique beauty!
