Revoluční 1 and 3: Timeless 1930s Architecture in Dialog with Modern Business

A complex of two architecturally valuable buildings from the 1930s, also known as the Kotva Palace (Revoluční 1) and the Batex Palace (Revoluční 3), dominates one of Prague’s most sought-after addresses. Located directly on Republic Square, next to the iconic Palladium and Kotva department stores and not far from the Powder Tower and the Czech National Bank, the buildings offer prestigious premises for tenants looking for space in the heart of the city’s financial and historical center. Currently, the last available office spaces ranging in size from 269 to 778 m² are available in the complex, some of which can be newly prepared for the client within 3 months of signing the lease agreement.

The key benefit of the spaces is their flexibility. “At Revoluční 1 and 3, we currently offer variable units on the 2nd and 4th floors. The spaces on the 2nd floor of both buildings can also be connected, creating an impressive office area of up to 1,228 m², which is rather rare on the market in Prague 1. Thanks to the fit-out, the units can be designed as modern open spaces or divided into classic closed offices,” says Petra Schinkmannová, senior property consultant in Svoboda & Williams’ commercial leasing department.

The owner has been continuously investing in the buildings with the aim of increasing user comfort while maintaining their original purist Functionalist esthetics and placing great emphasis on sustainability, as confirmed by the international BREEAM In-Use certification (at the Very Good level). The buildings are equipped with energy-efficient VRV cooling systems, they have 24/7 security, and two separate reception areas. The complex’s high attractiveness is also evidenced by the fact that the renowned international studio Bogle Architects chose it as its headquarters.

The strategic location near the Náměstí Republiky metro station ensures unrivalled accessibility by public transport, while parking is conveniently provided in the underground garages of the neighboring Burzovní palác, which is directly connected to the complex by a passageway. “We welcome cooperation with owners who restore buildings to their original grandeur while investing in technology and ensuring modern sustainability standards. It’s this combination that has enabled us to conclude a number of major contracts at Revoluční 1 and 3,” adds Jaroslav Waldhauser, head of commercial leasing at Svoboda & Williams.
