Wiehlův dům, Renaissance Revival house in New Town Prague, Czech Republic.

Wiehlův dům is a Renaissance Revival residential building on Wenceslas Square in the New Town district of Prague. Its facade is covered with painted panels showing allegorical figures, scenes from human life across different ages, and inscriptions with old proverbs.

Antonín Wiehl bought the plot in 1894 after the previous building there was demolished, and built this house in 1894–96 to his own design as his home and office. He lived and worked here until his death, leaving the house to the Czech Academy of Sciences and Arts; it has housed the Academia publishing house since. Damaged by German bombing during the May 1945 uprising, it was repaired in the 1950s.

The murals on the facade show scenes of everyday life from the late 19th century, including craftwork, family moments, and allegorical figures accompanied by old proverbs. Standing in front of the building, visitors can read these images like a visual story about different ways of life and social roles of that time.

The building sits directly on Wenceslas Square, one of the most central points in Prague, and is easy to reach on foot or by metro. The facade is best viewed from across the square, where there is enough distance to take in the full height of the painted panels.

The murals were designed by Antonín Wiehl himself, who chose the proverbs and scenes from his own collection of sayings found on historical buildings. The ornamental painting is by Josef Fanta and the figures by Mikoláš Aleš; painters Láďa Novák and A. Hofbauer carried the work out, assisted by František Urban and Vilém Trsek.
