Věžový dům Ostrčilova, Modernist skyscraper in Ostrava, Czech Republic.

The Vezovy Dum Ostrcilova stands 65 meters tall with 22 floors above ground and 2 underground levels in the center of Ostrava.

The building, completed in 1971, initially contained 110 residential units before its conversion to office spaces in 1978 due to structural modifications.

This high-rise structure represents the late international architectural style and marks the socialist-era urban development of Ostrava's city center.

The upper floors from the 14th level were evacuated in 2004 due to insufficient fire safety measures and evacuation routes.

The building's experimental construction used the V-OS system with cast reinforced concrete core and elevator shaft, featuring metal staircases and thin-walled partitions.
