The Academy of Sciences building features a grand neo-Renaissance design with symmetrical wings, ornate stone details, and a central entrance decorated with sculptural elements.
Constructed in 1863 under architect Vojtěch Ignác Ullmann, the building established itself as a center for scientific advancement during the industrial revolution in Bohemia.
