Vyšehrad - Change of perspective

Štěpán Musil

Annotation

The walls of Vyšehrad close to the Tábor Gate offer an attractive view of Prague Castle, unfortunately its potencial is not yet exploited by the empty slope. The aim of the design of the lookout was to attract the attention of passerby using simple architecture and to intensify the feeling of the view at the end of the building. The viewer's sight is first taken by the alone standing wall, to which a subtle footbridge leads. The view through the hole in the wall is blocked by the subsequent staircase. As you climb the staircase, the final panorama gradually appears above the bench.
