Jewish Bubeneč: Near Bučkovy Sady

Bučkovy Sady was once a favourite spot for walks among Prague's wealthy residents. Traces of that prosperity remain today, though the gardens have been reduced to a small park named after Willy Brandt. In its immediate surroundings, Jewish builders commissioned remarkable residences during the First Republic - many of them still surprise with their extraordinary, sometimes avant-garde architecture.

Regardless of style, the villas here share one thing: the fascinating stories of their inhabitants. This walk is dedicated to them.
