František Blažek (1863 in Zálší – 1 January 1944 in Prague) was a Czech architect who designed a great number of buildings in Bosnia and Herzegovina during the Austro-Hungarian period.[1]
Work
In Bosnia and Herzegovina he is also known as Franz Blazek, Franz Blažek, or Frank Blazek.[citation needed] Some of his noteworthy works include the Mostar Gymnasium, the Masaryk Independence Tower in Hořice, Czech Republic, and the Franz Josef Garrison in Sarajevo (today's Ministry of Defence).[2][3]
František Blažek also designed three hotels in Sarajevo's suburb of Ilidža near the Vrelo Bosne: hotels Igman, Austria and Bosna. They were completed in 1895.[4]
