Dům módy, Fashion house building in New Town, Prague, Czech Republic
Dům módy is a six-story building on Wenceslas Square featuring a symmetrical facade with large glass windows and stone architectural details. Inside, multiple retail spaces are organized across the floors and served by elevators for easy access to all levels.
Built in 1956 after World War II, the building became Prague's main fashion retail destination during the post-war rebuilding period. It reflects how the city modernized its commercial spaces after years of conflict.
The building serves as a gathering place where fashion and everyday city life come together on one of Prague's liveliest squares. Locals and visitors mix here to browse and experience how the city expresses itself through style and commerce.
The building is fully accessible to visitors, with clear signage and information available at the entrance. Elevators allow you to explore all floors easily, including for those with mobility limitations.
The original brass door handles feature detailed patterns incorporating symbols from Czech textile craftsmanship of the 1950s. These small touches remain visible today and connect the building to the tradition of skilled textile production that defined the era.
