М	Мгер Симонян on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Следуя прямо по тропинке, в углублении Страговских садов перед вами предстанет большой каменный крест с изображением распятого Христа - еще одно свидетельство того, что вы находитесь на территории монастырских владений. Менее чем в ста метрах от тропы, по всему периметру возвышается массивная стена - это остатки некогда мощной крепостной стены, защищающих город от внешнего вторжения. Эта стена вас будет сопровождать долго, временами переходя в оборонительные башенные сооружения, куда можно беспрепятственно войти и увидеть их изнутри. Зная историю Праги, и трагические события времен шведского нашествия, здесь невольно всплывают картинки из прошлого. Ведь полчища шведов, стоящих у этих, когда пробили оборону, вторглись и разорили этот мирный монастырь. Возможно, этот одинокий каменный крест стоит здесь как упоминание о тех трагических событиях. К сожалению, мне так и не удалось это выяснить, а лишь фантазия моей мысли, как некое предположение. Following directly along the path, in the deepening of Strahov gardens you will see a large stone cross with the image of the crucified Christ - another evidence that you are in the territory of the monastic possessions. Less than a hundred meters from the path, a massive wall rises all around the perimeter - these are the remains of a once powerful fortress wall that protect the city from external invasion. This wall will accompany you for a long time, sometimes turning into defensive tower structures, where you can freely enter and see them from within. Knowing the history of Prague, and the tragic events of the times of the Swedish invasion, pictures from the past are involuntarily emerging here. After all, the hordes of Swedes standing at these, when they broke through the defenses, invaded and ruined this peaceful monastery. Perhaps this lonely stone cross stands here as a reference to those tragic events. Unfortunately, I did not manage to find out, but only the fantasy of my thought, as a certain assumption.
V	Vladimir Pecha on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Vysoká socha Ježíše na kříži stojí ve Velké strahovské zahradě (s rozlohou 11 ha jde o největší ze všech petřínských zahrad) podél přístupové cesty ze strahovského areálu k areálu Petřínské rozhledny v místech, kde začínají klesat svahy Petřína severovýchodním směrem k nemocnici Milosrdných sester sv. Karla Boromejského. Paralelně s cestou se zahradou táhne linie Hladové zdi, prolomena brankou a zadním traktem domku, ve kterém bydlel režisér Elmar Klos. Dům je prakticky součástí zdi a směrem do zahrady je ozdoben působivě řešenou terasou. Tall statue of Jesus on the Cross stands in the Great Strahov Garden (with 11 hectares it is the largest of all Petřín gardens) along the access road from the Strahov area to the Petřín Lookout tower area where the slopes of Petřín begin to descend northeast toward the Merciful Sisters Hospital of St. Karel Boromejský. Parallel to the road, the line of the Hungry Wall stretches through the garden, broken in two places - by the gate and the rear of the house where the director Elmar Klos lived. The house is practically a part of the wall and the garden is decorated with an impressive terrace.

M	Mina T on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ After visiting Prague Castle and Strahov Monastery, we strolled through the Petrin forest. It was very comfortable and relaxing to walk on the lawn, especially after walking on the cobblestone road. I heard that the Hunger Wall beside the forest was built by Charles IV to provide work and pay for the poor.
