In 1555–1558, the villa Hvězda (Star) in Prague was designed and built by Archduke Ferdinand, vice-regent of the kingdom of Bohemia and the son of Ferdinand I, King of Bohemia and Holy Roman Emperor from 1558.

It is a centrally-planned building with rooms grouped around a central “atrium”, all connected so that they form a kind of ambulatory.
