Palác Merkur, Art Nouveau palace in Old Town, Czech Republic
The Palác Merkur stands eight stories high with granite cladding and features two semi-circular porches at the corners used by the café area.
The insurance company Merkur commissioned architect Jaroslav Fragner to design this building, which opened its doors in 1935 as the first modern structure in the area.
The ground floor café Vltava marked the beginning of Karel Gott's singing career in 1958, establishing the venue as a significant cultural location.
Located at Revoluční 767/25 in Prague 1, the palace contains administrative offices and a restaurant, with easy access from the Dlouhá třída transport station.
The building's narrow block facing the Vltava embankment connects to two longer seven-story side blocks, creating a roof terrace with city views.
