A Plzeň building partly designed by the modernist architect Adolf Loos, in which the surrender of the German garrison occurred on May 6th 1945, is set to be renovated and repurposed. The dilapidated building is set to become a new museum all about the events of that fateful year in Plzeň.

As you walk down Plzeň’s wide Klatovská Avenue towards the city centre, you might easily ignore the large building at no.
