Radnice, Edited Version, Melnik, Bohemia (CZ), 2011

Here are the Melnik radnice photos, as promised. Supposedly this site has been used for the radnice since 1449, although the site has the magistrat as far back as 1398, and the current building dates to 1793. This 1793 radnice was also rebuilt in 1889 and 1941, so even it isn't completely original. Other than this, I've had trouble finding much information about it.

After walking through Fantova Kavarna, I got lost in the construction, and ended up on Nastupiste (Platform) 1, where this Pendolino was sitting. Given that I don't get a shot of these every day, I took the picture even though my Ikoflex was empty and so I only had the cameraphone (as was the case with the earlier Hlavni Nadrazi shots in this series).

I've never shot a photo from this angle before, from the hallway shown earlier, facing into Fantova Kavarna. Fantova Kavarna is the most noticably unrestored part of the station, although with all the statues and paintwork this may be due to the difficulty that will be involved once they get around to it.

I got back from my Cercany trip early enough to get the sunlight through the windows of Hlavni Nadrazi, and in addition I had to walk through this front hall (on the Wilsonova side of the station), which I rarely use, in order to get to the metro. This is one of the few parts of the station that hasn't been restored yet, although the paint looks to be in pretty good condition.

Radnice, Kladno, Bohemia (CZ), 2009

Here's the old Radnice, or town hall, of Kladno, constructed in 1898, is considered neo-Rennaissance in style. The architect was named Jan Vejrych, which brings up the question of whether he could have been related to Jan Werich, the actor and comedian.

Radnice, Liberec, Liberecky Kraj, Bohemia(CZ), 2007

The radnice, or city hall, in Liberec is one of the city's most notable landmarks, and frequently appears in encyclopedia entries and travel guides. Built in 1893, it looks a lot older, of course, as it isn't common to find something so recent that features so much detail. :-)

Hofkirche & Residenzschloss, Dresden, Sachsen (Saxony), Germany, 2005

The Residenzschloss is the City Hall for Dresden, and the Hofskirche (Church of the Holy Cross) is right next door (you can only see the rear of it here). The statue is cool, too, but ultimately I took this shot for the overall detail and complexity. It is, in its own way, beautiful.
