Procházka v angličtině / The walk is held in English
Preserved, transformed, and vanished buildings from the 1960s to 1980s with architect Štěpán Beneš from the Mapamátky association. Raw concrete, austere forms, monumental scale – symbols of the regime, or treasures of Modernism? A guided walk will present post-war architecture in central Prague – buildings preserved, altered, or gone. We will compare different approaches to reconstruction: the Hotel Fairmont Golden Prague, restored with respect for its design, contrasts with the former International Union of Students headquarters, reshaped almost beyond recognition. Along the way, we will see Kotva Department Store, the Main Railway Station, the New Building of the National Museum and recall the fate of Transgas. What do these changes tell us – and what will truly remain of Prague’s post-war architecture?
