About Müllerova vila

Villa Müller in Prague is an architectural masterpiece by Adolf Loos, built between 1928 and 1930 for the construction entrepreneur František Müller. From the outside, the building in the Střešovice district is a plain cube, but inside it combines fine materials from different eras with Loos’s theories on spatial planning and color design. The garden, designed in collaboration with renowned landscape architects, is also an integral part of the concept. After a long period of decay during the Socialist era, the villa was bought by the city following the Velvet Revolution and extensively restored. Today it serves as a museum that you can visit by advance reservation, giving you a deep look into luxurious domestic living and Loos’s architectural legacy.

The villa, including its interiors, has been renovated and restored to its original 1930 appearance in the late 1990s.
