František Plesnivý (4 April 1845 – 9 August 1918) was a Czech architect known for his Art Nouveau early designs and utilitarian later designs.[1] Among his many buildings are Ettrichova Vila (1873), the Jaroměř (present-day Czech Republic) house featured prominently in Jan Hřebejk's 2000 film Divided We Fall,[2] which during the late 19th century was frequented by such admirers as Emperor Franz Joseph I,[3] and the Lederer & Adler "mechanical shoe factory" in Litomyšl (1910).[4][5]
In 1897 František Plesnivý designed and constructed a villa for his family in Königgrätz, Villa Gabriela, named after his wife. During the early 20th century Plesnivý also designed and built churches,[6] experimental factories and public utility structures such as water towers.[7]
František Plesnivý died on August 9, 1918, in Villa Gabriela, Königgrätz.
