Husův sbor, Hussite church in Zelené Předměstí, Czech Republic

Husův sbor is a two-storey, two-winged building on the corner of Jiráskovy street and U Husova sboru, built in 1928 to Ferdinand Potůček's winning design. A quarter-circle portico and a semicircular stair tower join the wings; the tower carries the inscriptions "Pravda vítězí" and "Husův sbor" and is topped by a chalice with a double-barred cross. The right wing holds the worship hall with a gallery and organ on the second floor, a theatre hall below, and the left wing contains flats and offices.

The Czechoslovak Hussite congregation in Pardubice formed in early 1921 and first met in the castle chapel, then in the hall of the National House. In 1924 it bought land at Olšinky and held an architectural competition won by Ferdinand Potůček. The foundation stone, brought from Kunětická hora, was laid in June 1926, and the building opened on 27 May 1928; the first service had already been held in the unfinished hall in September 1927.

The congregation of the Czechoslovak Church formed in Pardubice in early 1921 and first met in the castle chapel, then in the hall of the National House (later the JAS cinema). The building's name refers to Jan Hus, and the tower carries the church's symbols: the inscription Pravda vítězí (Truth prevails) and a chalice with a double-barred cross. From the 1950s to the 1980s the East Bohemian Theatre and the East Bohemian State Chamber Orchestra also used the premises.

The prayer hall with its organ gallery is on the second floor of the right wing, reached by the semicircular stair tower at the corner; the ground floor of that wing held a theatre hall, used in 2022 as a sports shop. The left wing contains the pastor's and caretaker's flats and offices, so it is not open to visitors. Look for the inscriptions Pravda vítězí and Husův sbor on the stair tower.

The tower is topped by a chalice with a double-barred cross, the symbol of the Czechoslovak Hussite Church, and the inscriptions "Pravda vítězí" and "Husův sbor" are mounted on the semicircular stair tower. The foundation stone, laid in June 1926, was brought from Kunětická hora.
