Small Square

Exploring Old Town Prague is one of the great joys for visitors of Prague, with all of the historic sights, boutiques, restaurants; it is easy to get lost in all of things to see. It is also easy to overlook some of the smaller sights if you don’t know ahead of time what to look for. One such sight is the Malé námestí, or the Small Square. Located in the heart of Old Town, the Small Square is a quaint spot in Old Town, with a beautiful and intricate ironwork fountain at its center. The fountain itself dates back to the 16th century, and is an interesting centerpiece to this little spot in Old Town. The buildings that line the Small Square are representative of the historic architecture of Old Town, including a number of Gothic façades and entryways and quite a few buildings that are decorated with the graffiti style of decoration that was fashionable during the time when they were built. While many of the buildings of the Small Square are actually modern, the styles of the architecture have been created to blend well with the historical buildings that have been here since as far back as the 14th century.
