Description (in short)

The Kolowrat garden became probably not until the middle 18th century. The wall hides on the eastern side of the garden the foundations of the Romanesque wall, which was part of a large fortification of Prague district called “Malá Strana“. It was the utilitarian garden only. There were fruit trees and grapevines. The garden still retains the same nature character until now. It was opened in 2000 after extensive reconstruction.
