Ignác Šechtl and Josef
Jindřich Šechtl: October: House No. 626, 9th May Street
Ignác Šechtl
and Josef Jindřich Šechtl
The oil lantern in the
picture indicates that photographer put his camera in front of the
house on the corner of Havlíček Street and 9th May Street before
1903. This was at the time when the block development of the New
Town of Tábor was underway, whose buildings had façades decorated
with elements inspired by historical architecture. Compared with
houses built or rebuilt in the 1930s in the austere garb of modern
architecture, this one preserves some of this original decorated
appearance. Today you can find a patisserie there.
