Vinohrady Market Hall, Market hall in Vinohrady, Prague 2, Czech Republic

Vinohrady Market Hall is a three-nave basilica-style hall built in 1901–1903 to Antonín Turek's design, with a thermal window, clock and two towers on its facade. Brick sections combine with a steel truss roof; two statues by Vladimír Astl, "Woman with Poultry" and "Man with Fish" (1903), flank the entrance. Since 1994 it has been called Pavilon and serves as a shopping centre.

Architect Antonín Turek designed this market hall at the start of the 20th century when Vinohrady was expanding into one of the major urban centers of Czech territories. The building was erected during a period of growth and modernization for the expanding neighborhood.

Two statues by Vladimír Astl flank the façade: "Woman with Poultry" and "Man with Fish" (1903), advertising the meat and fish trade the hall was built for. František Ruth records that stallholders transferred here from Tylovo náměstí soon returned, finding the site too remote. Since 1994 the hall has housed a shopping centre, and in 2013 a modern design furniture shop opened during Designblok.

The building occupies an inner block with entrances at Vinohradská třída 1200/50, U tržnice 1200/1, Slezská 1200/17 and Budečská 1200/34, so you can cross it from street to street. It is a shopping centre since the 1994–1995 conversion, not a food market, so check opening hours before setting out. The Náměstí Míru metro station and tram stops on Vinohradská třída are a short walk away.
