Villa Primavesi
The Villa Primavesi has been listed as a National Historic Site since 2010 and today, guided tours of the ground floor are available on request.
The representative Art Nouveau mansion from 1906 was designed by the architects Franz von Kraus and Josef Tölk, leading protagonists of Viennese Modernism. Mr. and Mrs. Primavesi were well-known art collectors and art patrons. In the Villa Primavesi and the summer residence in Kouty nad Desnou, they hosted several famous artists, incl. Gustav Klimt, Anton Hanak, Koloman Moser and Josef Hoffmann.
Gustav Klimt received two attractive painting commissions from the Primavesi family - a portrait of little Mäda and a portrait of Eugenie. The painting of the then nine-year-old Mäda is the only portrait of a child Klimt ever produced on canvas. The portrait was sold by the family in the 30s and is currently owned by the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. The portrait of his mother, Eugenie Mäda, is now on display at the Toyota Museum in Japan. Mäda, a native of Olomouc, was the last living person Klimt portrayed.
The former rooms of the Primavesi family members and later the premises of the health institute are rented out as apartments and offices, and there is a café in the rear wing.
