The Old Town Hall is a minute's walk west to see this different style of house, which is named after the minute house. The exterior wall is decorated with Renaissance cut-scraping art patterns, describing the Bible and classical mythology. Not famous for these cutting paintings, but for the Kafka family who lived here.

    The name of this house is really strange. I even called me a minute house. I don’t know why. I really feel inexplicable. It only takes a minute to walk from this black house to the city hall sky. But it’s really close. These houses are connected, without any gaps,

    The exterior wall of the building is very special, with a gray bottom painted on the mural. The penwork is exquisite and delicate, and I heard that it is based on biblical stories. Another special point is that the famous literary artist Kakaf has lived here for a while, and it is strange that few people have to take pictures here.

    One minute house, refers to the walking time to the astronomical clock, the brain is always mistaken for a meter house, because visually the width of the rectangular house is only more than one meter. This small house is in an awkward position in Prague's Old Town Square. On the one hand, it is surrounded by the astronomical clock, the old parliament hall, and the beautiful and outstanding buildings of the Teen Church. It is easy to ignore. On the other hand, it is difficult to ignore the completely different architectural styles from the surroundings. Especially the light coffee color wall painting classical mythology story, the painting is a bit like a combination of paper cutting, relief, it uses a simple, generalized line surface to express the character's distinctive characteristics, while fine, flexible line performance details, so that monochrome characters are also lifelike. So a minute house will be noticed, but not for long.

    The One Minute House, located next to Prague's Old City Hall, was the residence of the Kafka family between 1889 and 1896, where all three of his sisters were born. The name of the Minute House is interesting, but the source is unknown, and the scraping paintings on the wall, made around 1615, tell the Bible and classical myths, although only monochrome, but the changes in light and dark will make the characters appear lifelike. There was a lion statue in the corner, called the white lion, added by the pharmacist who lived in the building in 1712. The white lion drug bureau was closed for a hundred and thirty years, and the owner was replaced by a tobacco dealer, and then the Kafka family moved in.

    Seeing the building walls with biblical content and many classical myths as the theme of the scrape painting, the characters are very vivid and are worth admiring. '' The history is long, and the story of the way to the building is also very interesting.
