V	Vladimir Pecha on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Socha Benedikta Rejta stojícím na vysokém soklu držícím olovnici byla odhalena 15. dubna 1986 na tehdejším náměstí Klementa Gottwalda, které muselo být hned po revoluci v lednu 1990 přejmenováno. Nový název byl vybrán právě díky pomníku, který na něm už stál, aniž by si tehdejší zastupitelé uvědomili, že podle Benedikta Rejta už je v Lounech pojmenována ulice, která vede k chrámu sv. Mikuláše (B. Rejt jej budoval), i když ulice nese jeho "alternativní" jméno - Beneše z Loun. Autorem je sochař Karel Kuneš (1920-1997) ve spolupráci s architektem Vladimírem Urbancem. The statue of Benedict Rejt, standing on a high plinth and holding the plumb line, was unveiled on April 15, 1986 at Klement Gottwald Square, which had to be renamed right after the revolution in January 1990. The new name was chosen precisely because of the monument that was already standing on it, even when the town representatives forgot, that Louny already got one street named after Rejt - it´s the street leading to St. Nicholas Church, which was built by him. Probably because the street had a bit "alternative" variant of Rejt´s name - Beneš of Louny. The author of the statue is the sculptor Karel Kuneš (1920-1997) in cooperation with the architect Vladimír Urbanec. The statue of Benedict Rejt standing on a high plinth holding a plumb line was unveiled on April 15, 1986 in what was then Klement Gottwald Square, which had to be renamed immediately after the revolution in January 1990. The new name was chosen thanks to the monument that already stood on it, without the then deputies realizing that according to Benedikt Rejt, a street leading to the church of St. Mikuláš (B. Rejt built it), although the street bears his "alternative" name - Beneš of Louny. The author is the sculptor Karel Kuneš (1920-1997) in collaboration with the architect Vladimír Urbanec.

J	Jiří Vopálenský on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Významný architekt a stavitel spojovaný s Louny, zj. coby místem svého posledního odpočinku. V Praze se podílel na významné přestavbě Pražského hradu. Do dnešních dnů se dochoval zejména Vladislavský sál, klenot pozdně gotické architektury. Significant architect and builder associated with Louny, zs. as your last resting place. He participated in a major reconstruction of Prague Castle in Prague. To date, the Vladislav Hall, a jewel of late Gothic architecture, has been preserved.
