Adria Palace (formerly Riunione Adriatica di Sicurtá insurance company)

Adria Palace (formerly Riunione Adriatica di Sicurtá insurance company)
The Adriatic Palace dates from 1922-25 and was built in the style of rondocubism by the Italian insurance company Riunione based on a design by architect Josef Zasche in collaboration with architect Pavel Janák. A passage called Adria runs from Jungmannova Street to Národní Třída through the palace. The sculptural decoration of the palace was provided by Otto Gutfreund, Jan Štursa, František Anýž, Karel Dvořák, and Bohumil Kafka.
The adaptation of the building for theatrical purposes was carried out in 1958-59 by architects František Cubr, Josef Hrubý, and Zdeněk Pokorný.
