Crematorium Pardubice, Crematorium in Pardubice, Czech Republic

The rectangular building with art deco elements features large stained glass windows, geometric patterns, and a grand ceremonial staircase leading to the main hall.

Architect Pavel Janák designed this crematorium between 1921 and 1923, marking a period when cremation became legal in the newly formed Czechoslovak Republic.

The central ceremony hall contains sculptures by K. Linhart representing the transition between life and death, alongside decorative paintings by František Kysela.

The crematorium performs approximately 3,500 cremations annually, with modern facilities located in a separate pavilion added during the 1995 renovation.

The building combines rondocubism architecture with ceremonial functions, making it the first purpose-built crematorium in the Czech Republic.
