Palác Dunaj, Constructivist palace in New Town, Prague, Czech Republic

The Palác Dunaj stands at the intersection of Národní and Voršilská Streets, featuring a yellowish travertine facade with white bands on upper floors.

The site originally contained a moat between Old Town and New Town during medieval times, with the first recorded house belonging to soldier Bokko in 1378.

The building integrates an interactive exhibition about European Union functions and transforms its original paternoster lift into a public art gallery space.

The palace contains 8,800 square meters of office and commercial space, equipped with modern technology while maintaining its 1920s architectural elements.

The paternoster lift, manufactured by Českomoravská Kolben-Daněk in 1936, continues to function as an operational vertical transport system within the building.
