Welcome to Dome Square 12, a baroque house with a Gothic core standing before you. You stand before him and you can see his beautiful facade, which is decorated with stucco ornaments and champagne sandstone.
Let's move on to the past. The house has a Gothic core that was built probably in the 14th century. However, his Baroque facade was built later, perhaps around 1700. The architects of this house are unknown to us, as are the persons associated with it.
Note the facade details. Look up and you'll see stucco ornaments that decorate windows and portals. Champagne sandstone was used for wall and pillar decoration. Now pay attention to the portal, which is decorated with stucco relief.
The house has a rich history, but its key stories are unknown to us. However, we may believe that he was the seat of some prominent figure or family.
Notice the atmosphere around the house. Look at the facade and see the house coming out of Dome Square 12. The atmosphere around the house is calm and mild, as if time had stopped.

For kids
Imagine going back 500 years to when Litoměřice was a small village surrounding the castle. Dómské náměstí 12 was young then, but it had its secrets and mysticism.
How did it look here? Who lived here? What happened here? The village was full of people who fed on agriculture and trade. People here built houses made of stone and wood, and the church in the square was the center of everything. They were people who believed in God and prayed to Him.
