00:00 "Uhelný trh" square - The name dates back to the middle of the 14th century when charcoal sales moved here from nearby Kozi Pacek. Therefore, the square was sometimes called the "New Charcoal Market." Coal was brought here partly from the countryside and partially burnt in the local charcoal smelter. Coal was bought for domestic needs and craftsmen (blacksmiths, bellmakers, locksmiths, etc.). Only in the first half of the 19th century made charcoal sales decline as hard coal gradually replaced it. A smithy stood on the square next to the smelting furnace (until the 19th century, when it was demolished).
01:12 House of the Three Golden Lions
Josef Mysliveček offered his friend Mozart a letter of recommendation for the music-loving Count of Prague, Jan Josef Pachta of Rájov, as early as 1777, but Mozart did not arrive in Prague until 10 years later. In the autumn of 1787, during his second stay in Prague, he stayed in the house U Tří zlatých lvů on the Coal Market, which belonged to the composer F. X. Duško. His stay here is commemorated by a portrait relief of W. A. Mozart and a white marble plaque above the first floor windows with the inscription "Mozart lived in this house in 1787". Mozart finished his opera Don Giovanni here, which premiered on 29 October 1787 at the Estates Theatre, with Mozart himself conducting the orchestra.

10:00 Vodickova street (Vodičkova ulice) is a well-known street full of tourists not only during the daytime but also a busy street in which traffic does not cease to stop even at night. It connects Prague's two largest squares – Charles Square and Wenceslas Square.
The street is named after Jan Vodička, a wealthy new town butcher who, in the 15th century, owned the most prominent house in the street (No. 699), U Nováků palace today. Thanks to the strategic position of the road – connecting the Horse market (Wenceslas Square) and the Cattle Market (Charles Square), it was a vital business route in the past.
Nowadays, it is one of the most-visited streets that offer various kinds of entertainment for all ages. It is used both by cars and trams, and at the corner of the street is the metro station Můstek. There are lots of shops, restaurants, pubs, and places on your visit to Prague. One of them is Lucerna passage, with its beautiful art nouveau cinema, classy café, and famous concert venue. It is one of the most popular places in the city center. Opposite Lucerna, there is the cinema Světotor that features good films. If you walk through the passage, you'll find yourself in the Franciscan gardens, a quiet and beautiful place to relax after your strolls in the hectic city center.

One of the most interesting modern Prague palazzos was built between 1907-1920. The investor, organizer and constructor, rolled into one, was ing. Vácslav Havel, entrepreneur, whose grandson – Václav Havel – later became President. Statue The Horse
Probably the most photographed of David Černý’s works is the dead Horse hanging from the Lucerna mall ceiling, just a few dozen yards from the iconic Statue of St Wenceslas by Myslbek, which it complements. Černý has his St Wenceslas sitting astride the Horse’s belly. The dead Horse hanging tied up by the hooves with his tongue out is a highly popular tourist draw.

This Square is the commercial and administrative center of the city as well as the site of important social and historical events.

The Square was created during the founding of the New Town by Charles IV in 1348. Today it is dominated by the National Museum (1885 – 1891) and Josef Václav Myslbek's statue of the national patron St Wenceslas from 1912.
