Obchodní dům Breda, Cultural monument in Opava, Czech Republic

The Breda department store stands as a five-story structure with large display windows and decorative elements on its main facade in central Opava.

Built between 1927 and 1928 by the Breda & Weinstein company, this department store remained the largest commercial building in the Ostrava region until the 1960s.

The building represents an architectural achievement by Leopold Bauer, incorporating modern design elements of early 20th-century commercial architecture in Central Europe.

Following a fire in 2004 and closure in 2012, the city council approved the purchase of the building for 40 million crowns for future renovation.

The local community reinstated the tradition of illuminating the building's facade during Christmas in 2021, after a 17-year interruption.
