Prokopovo náměstí/Square

This square, shaped like a small triangle, is the ideal spot for small markets. In the middle is a monument to Jaroslav Hašek, the brilliant Czech writer and author of the multi-volume novel The Fateful Adventures of the Good Soldier Švejk During the World War who lived part of his life in the vicinity. Sculptor Karel Nepraš conceived the work as an unusual equestrian bust.
