Can you imagine a world where a church and barracks stood where the Obecn\u00ed u00fa\u0159ad now stands? It was a time when the Habsburg Empire was fading, and the Czechs wanted their independence. The Obecn\u00ed u00fa\u0159ad is a testament to those times. It was built in the early 20th century after the demolition of the church and barracks. This building, right in front of you, is the Municipal House, a symbol of the Czech people’s desire for self-determination. After 1485, the Royal Court that stood here before was abandoned. Construction of the new building started in 1905. Designed by Osvald Pol\u00edvka and Anton\u00edn Bal\u0161\u00e1nek, it opened in 1912. It was here, inside this Obecn\u00ed u00fa\u0159ad, that Czechoslovakia declared its independence in 1918. This building is a historic landmark, a place where history unfolded and dreams were realized. Now, think about it. Did you know that the roof of this building was used for the INXS music video for their hit song ‘New Sensation’? It was made in 1987, but the building itself has remained unchanged, a symbol of Czech history and a reminder of the power of self-determination.
