Mikulášovice 2, Cultural monument in Mikulášovice, Czech Republic

Císařský dům čp. 2 is a two-storey Baroque townhouse on a rectangular plan, standing opposite the Church of St Nicholas and beside the U Lva pharmacy. Its facade, repainted over time in white-green and ochre, keeps rectangular windows and shopfronts with decorated surrounds added in the early 20th century. Above the main door are a stucco relief of the Holy Family and a gable, under a mansard roof of fired tiles.

Built around the mid-18th century opposite the Church of St. Nicholas, the house belonged to the merchant Zacharias Römisch and then to his son Franz Zacharias Römisch. Emperor Joseph II spent the night of 20–21 September 1779 there during an inspection tour of northern Bohemia. It survived the town fire of 20 September 1842 and was listed as a cultural monument on 4 April 1966.

The house is called Císařský dům (Imperial House) after Emperor Joseph II, who spent the night of 20–21 September 1779 there during an inspection tour of northern Bohemia. In 1880 residents placed a memorial plaque inside to mark the anniversary of his accession; it was later moved after thieves nearly stole it. A painting of a soldier survives next to the room where he slept.

The building is located in the town center and can be viewed from the outside. Those wanting more details can find information through Czech cultural heritage databases.

A soldier painted on an interior wall stands beside the room where Joseph II slept on the night of 20 to 21 September 1779. The house also sheltered Napoleon's general Georges Mouton de Lobau in 1813 and Archduke Stephan Viktor of Habsburg-Lorraine in 1841.
