Villa Mucha

Villa Mucha, Neoclassical villa in Bubeneč, Prague 6, Czech Republic

Villa Mucha is a two-storey neoclassical building with elements of emerging purism at V Tišině 781/4 in Prague 6–Bubeneč. The ground floor and first floor served residential purposes, while the upper floor held Alfons Mucha's large studio. Architect Bohumil Hypšman drew up the plans based on Mucha's own design.

Alfons Mucha commissioned the villa as his family home; it was built between 1925 and 1928 to plans by architect Bohumil Hypšman, drawn up according to Mucha's own design. The painter died on 14 July 1939 after interrogation by the Gestapo, and a Wehrmacht officer then moved in. After the war Mucha's son Jiří lived here until the villa was nationalised in 1950; it was returned to the family in 1990 and bought by financier Pavel Hubáček in 2015.

The villa takes its name from Alfons Mucha, who commissioned it as a family home and drew the plans himself; architect Bohumil Hypšman then worked them into the built design. Mucha kept a large studio on the upper floor, and the house held his art collection, which stayed there through the war.

The villa is a private residence at V Tišině 781/4 in Prague 6–Bubeneč and is not open to the public, so visits are limited to viewing the exterior from the street. The building stands two storeys high in a residential street; the former studio occupied the upper floor. The Embassy of Ghana used the house as its residence until 2015, when financier Pavel Hubáček bought it from the heirs.

The villa's plans were drawn by Bohumil Hypšman following a design by Alfons Mucha himself, so the painter shaped the house he lived in. After the German occupation a Wehrmacht officer moved in; according to Mucha's grandson John Mucha, that officer helped keep Mucha's art collection in the villa and allowed the painter's widow Marie Chytilová to stay rather than be deported.
