The Dancing House, nicknamed Ginger and Fred, is the Nationale-Nederlanden office and apartment building on the Rasinovo nabrezi riverfront in Prague, Czech Republic. Designed jointly by the architects Vlado Milunic and Frank Gehry in 1992 and completed in 1996 on a formerly vacant riverside plot, its undulating, twisting facade recalls a pair of dancers, giving the building its popular nickname.
