Why John Lennon Wall matters
This ever-changing wall started as a tribute to the Beatles musician and grew into a symbol of free expression. Layers of paint, lyrics and slogans are renewed constantly, so no two visits are the same. It is tiny but colourful, and it sits in a charming little square near the river.
Talking points
- The artwork is repainted by visitors and locals again and again.
- It became a symbol of peaceful protest during communist times.
- It sits steps from the Vltava and Charles Bridge.
