    The house was built in a dignified traditionalist style in 1929. The author of the project is the Czech architect and student of professor Kotěra, born in Benešov, Otakar Novotný. The house used to function as a seat of the State Bank of Czechoslovakia after the Second Wold War. Currently the building is used as part of the town hall. The bas-relief showing „The loan“ made by Bedřich Stefan is placed on the front facade. Inside one can find an impressive ground-floor hall and staircase covered with grey and white marble. The interior was completed with etched stained glass.

    The building underwent complete refurbishment between 1997 and 1998.
