Nad Vinným potokem was built in 1947.
‘Nad Vinným potokem’ translates as ‘Above the Wine Stream’. Which is not quite as delightful and summery as it sounds (and I say this as someone who doesn’t drink anymore) – the street is overwhelmingly industrial and largely pavement-free.
The ‘wine stream’ is an alternative name for the Botič, which flows through here. There’s a brief glimpse of the aforementioned lack of convenient places to walk if you look at the top left.
Nad Vinným potokem marks the border between Michle and Vršovice (the eastern side of the road is in the latter), and between Prague 4 and Prague 10 (ditto).
If features the Kapitol tennis complex which I mentioned on https://whatsinapraguestreetname.com/2026/10/20/prague-4-day-478-kapitulska/ (I am sure it is far nicer than this terrible photo suggests).
And the top of the street features the station discussed on https://whatsinapraguestreetname.com/2025/02/24/prague-4-day-44-k-podjezdu/, or, at least, associated underpassages and the like.
