Lázeňský dům v Bohdanči, Cubist spa building in Lázně Bohdaneč, Czech Republic.
The Lázeňský dům is a spa facility in Lázně Bohdaneč built with geometric forms and fragmented surfaces that show early 20th-century Cubist design. The building has multiple floors with a covered colonnade on the ground level, guest rooms on upper stories, and later a swimming area with artistic elements.
The building was constructed from 1912 to 1913 and later expanded in 1926 with an additional mansard floor. These changes show how the facility adapted to the growing needs of spa visitors.
The building's name combines purpose and place: Lázeňský dům translates to Spa House and defines its role as the heart of the bathing experience. Visitors can still sense this original function in the spaces designed for therapeutic treatments and guest accommodation.
The site is best explored through an organized tour that provides access to the interior spaces and their Cubist details. The building sits in the center of the Lázně Bohdaneč resort town, making it easily accessible.
A swimming pool from 1929 houses a Venus statue by sculptor Josef Jiříkovský that adds an artistic touch to the facility. This sculpture blends the wellness experience with fine art and often goes unnoticed by many visitors.
