Today on our Prague walking tour in 4k HDR we will visit Střelecký Island (Střelecký Ostrov), where you can enjoy amazing views of the city and where I will introduce you to cute nutrias! https://goo.gl/maps/Et7js3cYS7ZZjNB98 Střelecký Island: With an area of about 2,5 hectares, the island is situated between the Slavic (Slovanský) and Children’s (Dětský) islands. It is accessible from the Legion Bridge (most Legií). Over time, the island had changed its size and appearance and, due to this, also the names. It used to be called Little Venezia (Malé Benátky), the Upper Island (Hořejší ostrov), the Little Island (Malý ostrov), the Island under the Bridge (Ostrov pod mostem), the Lawn (Trávník), the Water Courtyard (Vodní dvůr) and also "šicinzl", which was a Czech expression for the German word “Schützeninsel” meaning the Střelecký Island (Střelecký ostrov). As early as under Charles IV, Prague longbow and crossbow shooters were privileged to train here. From the 15th century, the island held competitions in a shooting. During the Thirty Years War, the island ran wild, but later, in the 18th and 19th centuries, it was used for the shooters and folk festivals, celebrations, and carnivals. In 1812, after the fire of the old wooden shooting range, Prague shooters built a new brick building with a restaurant according to the plans of the court architect Josef Kliment Zobel. It was a single-story Empire-style building No. 336. Thanks to its basement, it survived even a great flood in 1890. Between 1935 and 1937, the building was extended by a terrace with a café designed by architect Jan Zázvorka. The structure and the island used to be a place for busy social life: promenade concerts, dance parties, dancing balls, and performances of variety and cabaret artists. In addition, a cinema auditorium was built on the first floor. In the 60s of the 20th century, the building was adjusted for the use of the Start Prague, an association for physical education. Initially, the visitors were transported to the island by ferry, which was replaced in 1841 for the Franz Joseph I Chain Bridge designed by architect Bedřich Schnirch. In 1901 the chain bridge was substituted by the present stone Legion Bridge. In 1882, the island held the 1st Sokol Festival, managed by Miroslav Tyrš, and in 1890 the island celebrated the first Labour Day Festival in Bohemia (May 1st). In 1926 the 8th Sokol Festival was ceremonially finished there, and this event took place on a stage and auditorium, both floating. During the protectorate, the island was seized by Prague Hitlerjugend, and after the war, it became a property of the city. The island was affected by August floods in 2002. Its considerable part was ruined by tons of alluvial sand. Recorded in 4k 60fps HDR Perception Philosophy © 2022 02.03.2022 Czech Republic ASMR
