Dancing House, Modern architectural landmark in Nove Mesto, Prague, Czech Republic.

The Dancing House features two connected towers with curved glass walls and misaligned windows, creating the appearance of two figures in motion.

The structure, completed in 1996, stands on a site where an apartment building was destroyed during an American bombing raid in 1945.

The building represents the architectural shift in Prague during the post-communist era, marking the city's transformation toward contemporary design approaches.

The building contains offices, a restaurant on the top floor offering views of Prague, and a hotel with 21 rooms spread across several floors.

The structure consists of 99 concrete panels, each shaped differently, and incorporates a metallic mesh dome nicknamed Medusa at its summit.

Address: Jiráskovo nám. 1981/6, 120 00 Praha 2-Nové Město, Czechia 120 00
