Old town hall in Prostějov, Cultural monument in Prostějov, Czech Republic
The Old Town Hall stands at Filipcovo Square with a 66-meter tower that shapes the skyline of Prostějov's central district. The building combines sandstone and decorative elements in a style that blends Bohemian and Central European influences.
Construction took place between 1911 and 1914 under Professor Karel Hugo Kepka from the Czech Technical University in Brno. This building expressed the city's confidence and modern aspirations during the early 20th century.
The building displays works by sculptor Čeněk Vosmík and craftsman Josef Bernauer, reflecting regional building traditions through its design and decoration. These artistic details make the place an example of local craftsmanship from that era.
Visitors can explore the building through guided tours arranged at the Information Centre. The best time to visit is on weekdays when most tours are available.
The copper-domed tower was originally planned for the center of the main facade but was moved to the side due to construction constraints. This asymmetrical placement gives the town hall an unexpected and unbalanced character.
