What's in a Prague street name

Every street in Prague, one by one.


Prague 4, day 292: V mokřinách


V mokřinách was built in 1925, and separated from another street (V Zátiší) in 1938.

‘Mokřina’ means ‘marsh’, ‘fen’, or ‘bog’, and reflects the surroundings.

The area got a bit of a glow-up in 2019: https://www.praha-priroda.cz/vodni-plochy-a-potoky/vodni-toky/zatissky-potok/revitalizace-a-opravy-na-zatisskem-potoce/revitalizace-v-mokrinach/.
