Mezivrší 41, Cultural monument villa in Braník, Czech Republic.
Mezivrší 41 is a two-story villa in Braník with three window axes visible on each side of the building. Triangular gables with relief details mark the street-facing facade, and a decorative mask adorns the keystone above the main entrance.
The villa dates from the second half of the 19th century and was built on the site of an older farmstead. It is a late Neoclassical house, and in 1958 it received protection as a cultural monument of the Czech Republic, covering the villa itself, the lower part of the garden and the fencing.
The villa's name comes from its street, Mezivrší, in the upper part of Braník. Its garden is laid out on two levels and planted with older fruit trees, and the plot is enclosed by a wooden plank fence on a low masonry base with capped brick pillars. The house and the lower garden with its fencing have been a protected cultural monument since 1958.
The villa stands in the upper part of Mezivrší street in Braník, Prague 4, and is a private family house, so it is seen from the street. The garden lies on two levels and is partly grassed, planted with older fruit trees. A wooden plank fence on a low masonry base with capped brick pillars runs along the plot.
The maskaron on the keystone over the entrance is one of several carved details on the street facade, which also carries a doubled low triangular gable with a dentil band. Pilasters and engaged half-columns mark the corners of the villa.
