What's in a Prague street name

Every street in Prague, one by one.


Prague 4, day 33: V luhu

V luhu was built in 1925.

A ‘luh’ is a riparian forest, i.e. a forest that’s next to a body of water. It can also be translated as ‘meadow’, and it seems that that’s what the area round here was once known as.

I would apologise for the days on which these posts are short, but we all know that there’s always a long one round the corner (not tomorrow, though).
