 Dancing Building/House by sue_stone
The building is nick-named Fred and Ginger, as it looks like two people dancing…and it really does! Hopefully my photo does it justice. Besides housing offices, it is home to one of Prague's top restaurants.
It was one of the things I really wanted to see on our visit so made sure we squeezed in a trip to this part of town. Leave a Comment

Dancing House also called "Ginger & Fred" is one of the most interesting and unusual modern buildings in Prague. It is artwork of Frank Gehry and Vlado Milunic and it was erected in the last decade of 20th century. Leave a Comment Directions: Dancing House is on the corner of Resslova and Rasinovo nabrezi. It can be reached walking from Metro station Karlovo namesti along the river to north or from National Theatre to south.

 Fred and Ginger by littlesam1
There is a lot of fascinating information about this building on the internet. So it pays to research it and read about it. It is designed in the tradition of deconstructive acrhitecture. The building is situated on a site where American bombs accidently destoryed a building at the end of World War II. When first looking at the building the left side seems to have been crushed thus recreating a allusion to the effects of the violence from the bombs. And yet at the same time it appears to be whimsical and dancing. I found it fascinating and yet somewhat out of place. But like Our Lady Before Tyn, this building also kept haunting me and I felt myself drawn to it on several occasions. Upon returning home I found that I had taken way too many pictures of this building. But then again that was the effect it had upon me.

 Fred & Ginger by doogienj
The co-architect is Frank Geary. It's called the Dancing Building, or the Fred & Ginger (as in Astair and Rogers) as the left side of the building appears to be leaning against the right, like a dancing couple.
The walk south will take you about 15 minutes from Charles Bridge, on one of Prague's nosiest streets. Leave a Comment Directions: Walk from National Theatre along river to south.
