History of the department store

For its first three years the building belonged to the American Woolworth corporation, then to the German trading company DeFaKa (Deutsches Familien-Kaufhaus). After 1945 it was taken over by the Centrum Department Stores. The building represents modernism in the form of a classic interwar department store.
