DLA Piper advises Komerční banka on sale of iconic Wenceslas Square office building in Prague

3.07.2024, Company: DLA Piper Prague LLP

DLA Piper’s Prague office has advised Komerční banka on the sale of its subsidiary which owns the historic building at Václavské náměstí 42, to the City of Prague for more than CZK3.3 billion (EUR131 million). 

The City of Prague was interested in the building due to its historical value and because the recent sensitive reconstruction of the building will allow the city to move in without major investment. Its strategic location in the city centre on three metro lines and the capacity of the office building also played an important role in the decision. Prague intends to move several hundred of its officials from Škoda Palace, Adria Palace and the building on Mariánské náměstí into the office building. The transaction also includes an agreement for the bank to remain in the building on a lease until the end of 2026.
