Part of the Royal route, the Nerudova street still amazes unprepared travellers, showing well-preserved houses in the Baroque style, decorated with emblems, which were called once a particular house. This tradition existed in Prague until 1770, when the Empress Maria Theresa ordered to number all the houses in this city. But the old names of houses remained, and now we can see the house "At the white Swan, and a mansion "two suns" or "three black eagles". The imagination of the inhabitants in those days had no boundaries. Each owner was placed on the facade of emblems, logos that would remember and caused idle delight of the audience.
His street name was in honor of the famous poet Jan Neruda, who was the son of the innkeeper, grew up here (in the houses №44 and №47), and glorified not only outside, but also his country.
Nowadays the street is pedestrian, although it is possible to notice the parked cars that belong to local residents. Located on the street, in addition to historic buildings, gift shops, restaurants, embassies. The place is fashionable, attracting the attention of the crowds, so carefully choose the time to make promenade along the Nerudova street, in order not to be lost human weight and take pretty pictures.
Interestingly, once in the middle of the street were installed Strahov gate, which had been part of the city fortifications, and then were removed, and the street has gained a solid form.
The local house is famous not only for its logo, but also the tenants. For example, the house At the red lion once owned by the painter Peter Brandl, and the mansion "three violins" - three generations of artists who had manufactured the violin. By the way, they say that on moonlit nights near this house you can hear beautiful music. These are three of the demon train playing the violins.
