Pohorelec army barracks - Prague, Czech Republic - Picture Perfect Postcards on Waymarking.com

After Hradcanské Square and Loretánské Square the third square in Hradcany and the one with the highest altitude. In the picture we have a view of the eastern front of the territorial army barracks, No. 121, completed in 1895. In the middle of the square we can see a Baroque statue of St John Nepomuk of the 18th century. On the left is a row of buildings covering the southern side of the square. In the foreground we can see the bulky building U zlatého stromu (The Golden Tree), No. 147, dating from the end of the 18th century, with a staircase and a passage to the courtyard of the Strahov Monastery. Beyond it stands the house U modrého jelínka(The Blue Stag). On the opposite northern side stands a row of buildings with long arcades. The picture was apparently taken in 1914, after mobilization for the War, as most of the men marching away from the barracks are carrying a rifle. On the left, in front of the barracks, there are two of the electric trams designed by F. Križík, standing here at the terminus of route 5.
