Constructed between 1906 and 1912, Obecní Dům (Municipal House) offers a richly adorned exterior and interior including the work of many important Czech artists. Valuable decorations and architectural details in the "art noveau" style are the work of the well-known Czech artist Alphonse Mucha. In 1918, the independence of Czechoslovakia from the Austro-Hungarian Empire was proclaimed here and it has served as a center for social activities since that time, with a hall for concerts, dances and conferences, a romantic cafe, and an excellent restaurant.
