Three hidden green spaces in Prague you should visit NOW!⠀ ⠀ 1. Břevnov Monastery⠀ The secluded park that surrounds the High Baroque style monastery offers water features, plenty of green spaces and peaceful hidden corners that anybody can explore. There are even guided tours of the gardens (and monastery) for those who want to understand the place better.⠀ ⠀ 2. Cibulka⠀ Located in the Košíře area of Prague 5, Cibulka is a massive forested park (over 62 ha) with plenty to offer. There are hills, lots of trails, streams, some ruins and a few very unique sculptures to discover. Part of a large yellow hiking trail crosses through the forest, so if you get on it you can actually connect to other nearby green areas even as you exit Cibulka. ⠀ ⠀ 3. Vrtba Garden⠀ This beautiful green oasis sits perfectly hidden among the backstreets of Mala Strana. In fact, unless you know where you’re going, you won’t find this UNESCO listed garden, tucked away on the popular Petřín slope. ⠀ ⠀ Originally designed in 1720, this Baroque garden features plenty of frescoes, sculptures and well-manicured greenery. Plus, it boasts a stunning view of St. Nicolas church down below. Finding it can be a little tricky, since it hides behind an unassuming door on Karmelitska Street – but we promise, it’s well worth the effort.⠀ ⠀ #park #czechpark #parktovisit #walk #czechparktovisit #parktovisit #placestogo #prague #czechrepublic #brevnov #cibulka #vrtba

The Czech Republic is no short of famous artists. But do you really know them all?⠀ ⠀ 1. Jiří Votruba⠀ Jiří Votruba is one of the most well-known Czech artists, but he is also an illustrator and a graphic designer. Despite having a degree in civil engineering and architecture, he dedicated his life to the art industry.⠀ ⠀ 2. Alena Kupčíková⠀ One of the contemporary artists who became famous for her works globally is Alena Kupčíková. Her masterpieces are presented not only in the National Gallery in Prague (NGP) and but also in Europe, in the US, and Switzerland. ⠀ ⠀ 3. František Janák⠀ Janák’s works are unique for a peculiar reason: he uses glass to create art. Janák started his career as a glass designer before founding his own studio. Today, he is a glass cutting faculty leader in the Secondary School of Glassmaking in Kamenický Šenov (the oldest glass school in the world!). ⠀ ⠀ 4. Vladimír Boudník⠀ Czech post-war art is still looked at with a serious amount of respect for the change it so vividly depicted. One of the artists of the time was a photographer and graphic designer Vladimír Boudník, who represented the ‘explosionism’ movement, which was popular in the country back in the 1940s.⠀ ⠀ #czechart #art #prague #czechrepublic #praha #travel #czech #europe #travelgram #Europe #love #praga #instagood #instatravel #city #prag #picoftheday #pragueworld #topEuropePhoto #instaprague #прага #чехия #mood #praguearchitect

Virtual tour to Lobkowicz Palace: manuscripts of Mozart to be shared with the world.⠀ ⠀ The gorgeous Lobkowicz Palace opens its doors for a forty-five-minute live stream tour conducted by William Rudolf Lobkowicz. The owner of the family house since the 17th century will personally introduce the greatest collection of world-famous paintings and religious objects, the unique music archive and the finest private manuscripts collected by Lobkowiczs throughout the last seven centuries.⠀ ⠀ One of the oldest Czech and Bohemian noble families – Lobkowicz, were patrons and collectors of arts for centuries. Their private collection has over 1500 remarkable paintings, including masterpieces by Pieter Bruegel the Elder, Velasquez, Rubens, Veronese, and others.⠀ ⠀ The collection also keeps decorative and sacred art objects, dating through the 13th to the 20th century. Furthermore, there are armours and hundreds of hunting trophies that date to the 18th century. The collection also has an archive that keeps documents detailing the social history, politics, diplomacy, arts, and family correspondences dating back to the Middles Ages.⠀ ⠀ The next virtual tour to Lobkowicz Palace is scheduled for Sunday 4/4/2021, at 6 PM Prague time. ⠀ ⠀ #LobkowiczPalace #Lobkowicz #palace #czechrepublic #Lobkowiczfamily #czechcrown #prague #bohemia #instahistory #history #virtualtour #tour

Olga Hepnarová – the last woman executed by the Czechoslovakian government.⠀ ⠀ Olga Hepnarová, the last woman to ever be executed by the Czechoslovakian government, was put to death for killing 8 people with a truck on July 10th, 1973.⠀ ⠀ She then went to the tram stop near Strossmayer Square in Prague 7, a spot she had scouted out beforehand. When the time was right, she drove over a crowd of people waiting for their tram, killing 3 instantly, causing 5 to die later in hospital and injuring 12 more. ⠀ ⠀ When police arrived, Olga was just sitting behind the wheel waiting to go to jail with her luggage. Earlier in the day, she had mailed a letter explaining what she had done.⠀ ⠀ “I am a destroyed human. A human destroyed by people. I had to choose: kill myself or kill others. I am choosing this, to give payback to my haters. If I left as an unknown suicide victim then it wouldn’t matter enough for you. I, Olga Hepnarová, the victim of your savagery, sentence you to death by running you over and I am stating that for my life, killing X number of people is not enough. Acta non verba (Actions, not words).⠀ ⠀ During her trial, Olga confirmed she committed the murder completely on purpose, and stated that it wasn’t because of her mental illness, it was because society left her with no voice. Her lawyer kept trying to say that she was schizophrenic but she kept denying it and the argument went nowhere. ⠀ ⠀ On April 6th, Olga Hepnarová was convicted of her crimes, and on the 12th of March, 1975, she was hanged in Pankrac Prison.⠀ ⠀ #news #media #viral #breakingnews #noticias #trending #new #info #tvl #business #czechnews #hepnarova #olgahepnarova

Anna Chromý: sculptures of the soul.⠀ ⠀ Despite being a modern-day artist, Chromý is known for the variety of ancient themes in her work. Classical myths and philosophies from Greece and Rome are combined with her childhood experiences. Through this, Chromý creates art that is both a contemporary and personal take on ancient ideas.⠀ ⠀ As an adult, Chromý traveled to Paris, where she became more entrenched in art history. She concluded that her future was in art, and enrolled in l’Académie de la Grande Chaumière.⠀ ⠀ Later in her successful career, Chromý was in a tragic accident that kept her from being able to paint. At this point, she began sculpting, which her mentors had encouraged her to attempt years earlier. Her home in the Côte d’Azur and time in Italy invigorated many of the ideals present in her art today. From then on, her success has only grown, with achievements such as being the first woman artist to receive the annual award for sculpture, the Premio Michelangelo.⠀ ⠀ #art #czechart #chromy #annachromy #prague #czechrepublic🇨🇿

Legends of the Astronomical clock ⏱️⠀ ⠀ 1. Tragic fate of Master Hanuš⠀ According to the legend, Hanuš was chosen by Prague’s councilors to design a device that would serve as a clock but have additional valuable features. Hanuš presented his work to the councilors and they thought the machine was a true piece of art. However, they got scared that he’ll replicate the clock, stripping it off its uniqueness. That is why the councilors decided that the only way to preserve the authenticity and irreplicability of the clock was to get rid of its creator’s abilities. One night, a group of people came to Hanuš’s house, tied him to a chair, and blinded him with a piece of glowing iron. ⠀ ⠀ 2. Skeleton of the astronomical clock⠀ Based on the myth, the Astronomical clock will stop running when the Czech nation is about to encounter challenging times. The skeleton, in its turn, would nod its head to confirm this fact as it has a power of telling the future. The only one to save Czechs from the disaster would be a boy born on the New Year’s night.⠀ ⠀ 3. A free sparrow⠀ When looking at the astronomical clock, you might notice two small windows at the top. These windows were leading to the prison, previously used for aristocrats. One knight was imprisoned there, awaiting his execution. He was looking out of the window, and when the clock began to strike, he noticed a sparrow fly by the skeleton. When the skeleton shut its jaws, it captured the little bird inside.⠀ ⠀ The knight thought that the poor bird will spent the rest of its life there, repeating his own fate. The sparrow had to wait one hour until the clock started moving again, and the skeleton opened its teeth. The bird was free again! When the knight saw that, he took it as a sign that he would escape his prison, as well, and was eventually pardoned.⠀ ⠀ #czechlegend #astronomicalclock #clock #prague #czech #czechrepublic #instagood #instatravel
