Olomouc City House, Baroque house in Karlovy Vary, Czech Republic

The four-story Olomouc City House stands in the historical center of Karlovy Vary on Tržiště Street, featuring Baroque architectural elements.

Following a devastating fire in 1759 that destroyed 224 buildings, construction of the original structure began in 1760 and opened that same year.

Johann Wolfgang Goethe stayed at this house nine times between 1806 and 1820, with a commemorative plaque and inscription marking his visits.

The building is accessible via Bus Number 2 from the Market city terminal to Theatre Square, followed by a walk across Jánský Bridge.

The structure underwent a transformation in 1910 under Viennese architect Johann Friedrich Ohmann, who incorporated Art Nouveau elements into its design.
