AB The article deals with interior tiling, especially in Prague and Central Bohemia. Moreover, the development of sanitary equipment is mentioned. Initially, Dutch tiles were exceptionally imported from the Low Countries. The production of glazed wall tiles began in Bohemia in the late 19th century. In Prague, they have survived in some edifices and staircase vestibules of tenant houses from the first quarter of the 20th century. The interesting Beuron tiling in the Emmaus Church did not remain. Presented are also samples of tiling in bathrooms, kitchens, butcher shops, spas, and other places as well as leaflets of the ceramic factory in Rakovník.
