Depicted Baroque house N° 13, located on the corner of Pražská street and Žižka Square (Žižkovo námestí) in historic center of Tabor, belongs among many valuable historic burgher houses in the city.

Baroque house N° 13 belongs undoubtedly among the most beautiful houses in Tábor. Its rich facade is decorated by statues of Virgin Mary and St. John of Nepomuk together with a Latin inscription wishing happiness and success. The house, originaly two small Gothic houses, was joined and rebuilt in Baroque style in 1703, when it gained not only a new decorative facade but also valuable gable with volutes and niches. House was completely reconstructed in 1999.


Mezi nejkrásnejší domy v Tábore bezpochyby patrí dum cp.13. Socha sv.Panny Marie a sv. Jana Nepomuckého spolu s nápisem tomuto domu s tak neobvyklou, výraznou fasádou, prejí štestí a úspech. Jakoby spolecne s domem pomáhají strežit východ ze Žižkova námestí do Pražské ulice. Dum má gotické základy i pudorys. V roce 1703 dostal cenný barokní štít s volutami a výklenky. Z té doby pochází také prekrásná výzdoba fasády. Rohový puvodne meštanský dum se stojí na ploše 233 m². V dome se nacházejí dve úrovne sklepu se zazdeným spojením na rozsáhlé táborské podzemní chodby ve tretím podzemním podlaží. Celý pudní prostor pod sedlovým krovem byl postavený podle doložených podkladu z 16 století.
