MATĚJKOVÁ, Lucie
The theme of the bachelor´s thesis is the construction of avenue Mikulášská situated in Prague´s Old Town after the demolition of the original Jewish town. According to redevelopment plan there was built a long broad avenue in Old Town, which ideologically followed the original intent to connect the Old Town with left river bank through plain Letná up to the Prague Castle. This urban intervention brought to Prague phenomen of long wide french style boulevards. It is therefore obvious that the best architects of that time participated in the construction. Architectural front fasades are decorated predominantly in historical styles and uses elements of Gothic, Renaissance, Baroque and Art Nouveau. The aim of the thesis is to clarify the realization of selected apartment buildings and set their visual processing in the wider context of 19th century architecture and also to map the ideological proposals of continuing the avenue Mikulášská by breaking through Letná plain.
