Über den Ort

Bronze figures descend the stairway at the base of Petřín hill, showing progressive stages of decay to honour political prisoners and victims.

The memorial stands at the base of Petřín hill along Újezd street in Malá Strana. A sequence of bronze human sculptures descends the concrete stairway, depicting progressive physical decay and missing limbs. The installation commemorates Czechoslovak citizens who suffered persecution, imprisonment, and execution under totalitarian rule.

Long-term residents passing between Lesser Town and the surrounding green slopes encounter the open-air monument as an unfenced part of the urban landscape. The public staircase connects transit stops on Újezd directly to the park paths, integrating historical remembrance into the ordinary rhythm of daily neighbourhood movement.
