Justiční areál Na Míčánkách, Institutional complex in Prague 10, Czech Republic.
The Justiční areál Na Míčánkách is a judicial complex in Prague 10 that combines Renaissance Revival architectural features with modern construction methods and materials. It houses multiple courtrooms and administrative offices organized across its buildings to handle regional legal proceedings.
The complex was designed by architects Vladimír Kružík and Petr Olexa and opened in 2006 as part of Prague's push to modernize its court infrastructure. This project replaced older judicial facilities and integrated updated building standards for contemporary legal operations.
The complex is named after Na Míčánkách street, one of the four streets framing it, and its restored neo-Renaissance façades recall the former Jan Roháč of Dubá barracks and the 28th Prague Regiment once stationed here. Inside the public new building, corridors on each floor are colour-coded in deep red, green, blue and yellow to help visitors find their way.
Only the modern glass-fronted building is open to the public; the three restored former barracks serve the courts and prosecutor's offices alone. Inside, corridors on each floor are colour-coded in dark red, green, blue and yellow, and the new building has two underground and seven above-ground floors around two mirrored atria. A study room for inspecting case files and a specialised library are available on site.
The new building's corridors are colour-coded by floor in deep red, green, blue and yellow, and the complex is linked by underground passages. Judges and prosecutors are kept apart from the public, meeting visitors only in the courtroom. The new wing holds 98 courtrooms, 38 rooms for classified interrogations and 30 detention cells.
