The ceremonial castle hall of the town of Přerov

The chateau hall with a foyer was adapted in 2001 into a multi-purpose hall for concerts, cultural performances and weddings. Works of art – landscape paintings and sculptures – by important Přerov artists, painter Augustin Mervart (1889-1968) and sculptor Josef Baják (1906-1980) remained used for its decoration.

Originally, the Mervart Memorial Hall was ceremoniously opened in May 1968 and in 1981 it was extended to the Memorial Hall of Augustin Mervart and Josef Baják. Smaller works by Baják (smaller sculptures, plaques and medals) are used in the showcases in the foyer.
