Volmanova vila in Čelákovice is a functionalist building from 1938–1939, designed by architects Jiří Štursa and Karel Janů for industrialist Josef Volman. The estate is regarded as one of the finest examples of Czech interwar architecture and is often compared to the Villa Tugendhat in Brno. After an extensive restoration (2002–2015), it operates as a private cultural monument – a "house museum" – offering guided tours and cultural events. Since 2022 it has been a member of the international Iconic Houses network.
