Architecture Days will show how people lived here in the 1950s
Curious about what life in our cities was like after the war? The Trenčín Architecture Centre invites you to Architecture Days, which this year focuses on housing. The programme will introduce houses and residential estates built in the 1950s and help us understand why these buildings are also worth preserving.
Architecture Days 2026 in Trenčín are part of the 16th edition of the Czech festival Den architektury, which this year carries the motto “I dwell, therefore I am” and takes place in numerous cities across Czechia and Slovakia.
