Description

Venus Statue in Vrtba Garden by Jenny Rainbow.

Statue of Venus represents her as a huntress, with a hunting dog at her feet.
Vrtba Garden (Vrtbovská zahrada), Prague, Czech Republic.
A Jewel of Baroque Art.

The Vrtba Garden is a Class 1 cultural monument registered in the UNESCO World Heritage List and is the property of the City of Prague.

The little architectural gem, Vrtba Garden is a small Baroque garden located in the heart of Malá Strana, very near the Lesser Town Square. It was opened to the public in 1998 after eight years of remodelling.

The garden was designed in 1720 by the Czech Architect František Maxmilián Kaňka, who was also responsible for the Astronomical Tower in Clementinum.

The statues and sculptures found in the garden were created by Matyáš Bernard Braun, Czech sculptor, who had also been commissioned some of the statues standing on Charles Bridge.

The frescos in the Sala Terrena (the entrance to the gardens) were made by Václav Vavřinec Reiner.

Located on the slopes of Petrin hill, Vrtba Garden is quite steep and tiered and if you climb to the top, you will be able to enjoy stunning views of the Prague Castle and Malá Strana.
