The house in Prague was included in the list of monuments from the beginning of the 20th century. The building has remained largely unchanged since World War II, and elements of its original design have been preserved to this day. Public activists of the association Porozumieni dla Pragi applied for it to be placed under the protection of nature.
The apartment is located at Mala Street, 13 in Prague Polnok. The decision to include it in the register of monuments was made by the conservator of monuments of Mazovia. The entrance covers the living room with an additional building and its surroundings. We read on MWKZ's Facebook profile: “Administrative proceedings have been initiated ex officio at the request of the non-governmental organization Porozumienie Dla Pragi Association.”
After the war, the house was used as a living room
According to the conservator's findings, the building was most likely built in 1906-1908. At first, it belonged to the couple Vladislava and Romualnd Nazimek, then to the priest Jan Skvara (1910), with whom the image of Vir Dolorum above the entrance gate should be associated.
“According to the survey plan, which survived from 1906, there was a 3-story brick house with a side annex and a 1-story farm building in the northeast corner of the plot. In 1909, the property was divided into two parts. (ul. Mała 13 and 13A), the boundary mark on the eastern side of the house,” the message said.
The next owners bought this property in 1930 – Zofia, daughter of Przedpelska and Eugene Shpievac. At that time, mainly railroad workers, domestic workers and students lived in the apartment, and on the first floor there was a grocery store of Ya. During the Second World War, the house was not seriously damaged, and after 1945 it was used as a living room. In 1960, the house became the property of the State Treasury. According to the conservator, some of the details of the front facade were probably removed in the 1960s.
Rich decorations contrast with modernist simplicity
“The artistic value of the building is expressed through the composition of the body, the design of the facade and its interior. Despite the damage to the plaster, the rich decor with the combination of historical architectural details (profiled window bands, pediments with floral decorations, consoles) with acanthus designs, palmettes) with characteristic early simplified modernism (transitional form and rustication),” says the conservative.
As he mentions, similar combinations can be seen inside the building as well. In its completion, the early modernist decoration of the doors of the utility rooms on the ground floors was used, as well as modern terrazzo floors and metal balusters, contrasting with the interior design of the side stairs with wooden balusters and impressive but traditional. in the form, decoration of colorful floor tiles with geometric patterns and borders.” .
