Průmyslový palác, Art Nouveau palace in Holesovice, Prague, Czech Republic.
Průmyslový palác is an Art Nouveau building with a central steel and glass structure topped by a distinctive clock tower and two symmetrical wings. The entire complex spreads across exhibition grounds in the Holesovice district.
