Every street in Prague, one by one.

I could talk about myself for ages, or I could point out that https://english.radio.cz/ed-ley-englishman-recording-stories-pragues-streets-one-one-8806941 is over two years old but still largely stands (other than the Twitter links).

Prague 4, day 367: Květnových bojů

Květnových bojů was built in 1952.

‘Květnových bojů’ translates as (street) ‘of the May battles’, and commemorates the fact that Krč had a particularly hard time of it during the Prague Uprising of 1945.

There have been a good few posts about the Prague Uprising, especially recently; https://whatsinapraguestreetname.com/category/prague-uprising/ should guide you to all of them.

    Great to see you have introduced the search function, Ed! Have you had any more thoughts about that commemorative plaque for ‘manželé Zatopkovi’ at U Půjčovny 1353/8…? BW, Philip
