Charles Square

Czech republic, Prague
The largest square in the Czech Republic, located in the central part of Prague. The metro station of the same name goes to the square. It got its name in honor of King Charles of Luxembourg, at the behest of whom it was founded in the 14th century on the site of a cattle market. True, the square received its current name only in the 19th century - until that time it was known as the Cattle Market. In the same century, a luxurious park was laid out on the square, in which monuments to prominent Czechs were subsequently erected. The main attractions of Charles Square are the New Town Hall, Faust House and the Church of St. Ignatius of Loyola.

The largest area of ​ ​ the Czech Republic is a rectangle measuring approximately 130 by 510 meters. The square has a large square (about 4 hectares), full of cultural objects - the fountain of St. Joseph, monuments to the poet Vitezslav Galek, writers Caroline Svetlia and Elisha Krasnogorskaya, scientists Jan Purkina and Benedict Roezel. This is not a quiet place, because along and across the square are highways with tram lines. But greenery and places for a quiet holiday are enough.
