Krematorium Liberec, Crematorium and cultural monument in Perštýn, Czech Republic

The Krematorium Liberec features a symmetrical structure incorporating gardens, covered walkways, a waiting room, a chapel, and a columbarium within its grounds.

Architect Rudolf Bitzan designed this crematorium between 1915 and 1917, following a competition held by the Vienna-based association 'Die Flamme' in 1913.

Two large custodian statues by sculptor Alois Rieber stand at the entrance of the waiting room, representing the architectural significance of early 20th-century design.

The crematorium operates Monday and Wednesday from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM, and Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday from 8:00 AM to 2:00 PM at U Krematoria 460/7.

The building combines Art Nouveau and Reform Architecture styles, making it the first crematorium established in the Czech Republic in 1901.
