In 1848, Wenceslas Square was named after the patron saint of the Czech Republic - Saint Wenceslas. Before this, it served as the site of the Horse Market, where horse fairs were held. A statue of Saint Wenceslas sitting on a horse serves as a peculiar reminder of this past.
Wenceslas Square, in its appearance, more resembles a park, which is why it's no surprise that many Prague residents enjoy walking here.
The buildings around Wenceslas Square are arranged in such a way that they collectively form a unique maze of passageways. All these countless passages lead to the busiest streets of Prague.
The significance that Prague's residents place on this location is hard to overestimate. Depending on the dictates of the era, it has been the site of celebrations of liberation from imperial oppression (1918), the start of the communist revolution in 1948, and the fall of communism in 1989. Additionally, Wenceslas Square has been visited by astronaut Gagarin, several Presidents of the United States, and the Dalai Lama. Various holidays are celebrated here, and public gatherings take place to this day.
