Vrtbov Garden

Mal谩 Strana

LoginSave

This 鈥榮ecret garden鈥, hidden along an alley at the corner of Tr啪i拧t臎 and Karmelitsk谩, was built in 1720 for the Earl of Vrtba, the senior chancellor of Prague Castle. It鈥檚 a formal baroque garden, climbing steeply up the hillside to a terrace graced with baroque statues of Roman mythological figures by Matthias Braun 鈥 see if you can spot Vulcan, Diana and Mars.

Below the terrace (on the right, looking down) is a tiny studio once used by Czech painter Mikul谩拧 Ale拧, and above is a little lookout with good views of Prague Castle and Mal谩 Strana.
