In this article, you will find information about Art Nouveau in Prague and where to find the most beautiful examples of it.
Prague is famous for its magnificent architecture. Some know it as one of the best places in the world to explore Gothic buildings, some can’t stop admiring the stunning Baroque facades and the interiors. In this article, I would like to show you the Art Nouveau in Prague – the elegant buildings of one of the most beautiful architectural styles in the history of mankind.
Art Nouveau in Prague is pompous yet modest, joyful yet strict. You can find the imposing colorful facades and traditional Secessionist patterns. After years of being a part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, Prague took all the best of its architectural thought and uniquely implemented the knowledge.
Here are 11 amazing buildings that define the Art Nouveau in Prague:

Fabulous pictures with the names of buildings I admired while there but didn’t take the time to look up. My favorite artsy front is Hotel Central, but any of the painted buildings charm me enough to want a return trip! Thanks for posting!
