CZECHIA: Streetart Prague – Lennon Wall of Freedom – Graffiti and Urban Art Collection

Prague is the capital of the Czech Republic and is also known as the „City of a Hundred Towers“. It has around 1.3 million inhabitants and lies on the Vltava River. Worth seeing are the colorful baroque buildings in the Old Town, the Gothic churches and medieval buildings. One of the city’s landmarks is the Charles Bridge with a series of statues dating back to 1402. There is also plenty of streetart and graffiti throughout the city, for example one of the probably oldest „Halls of Fame“ in the world, the LENNON WALL, which has been a symbol of freedom and peace since the 80s. After the murder of John Lennon in 1980, an unknown artist painted a mural of Lennon on the wall, followed by more and more works by other people. The site became a special place of free expression in the country, which was then under communist rule. Here is a collection of urban art from Prague. Check out as well the pages for the Těšnov Hall of Fame and for the V Cípu Spray Walls.
