Nerudova Street (Nerudova ulice) was named after the poet and journalist, Jan Neruda, who lived at No 47 in the House of Two Suns. It is a picturesque narrow street that leads up to Prague Castle as part of the Royal Route. It’s a quite steep climb to the top, but along the way, you will see a splendid selection of heraldic beasts and emblems on the houses, for example, the Red Eagle, the Three Fiddles, the Golden Horseshoe, the Green Lobster and the White Swan. There are also some grand baroque mansions, such as the Morzin Palace, the Thun-Hohenstein Palace and the Church of Our Lady of Unceasing Succour. Eventually, you will reach Prague Castle, a wonderful vantage point from which to view the city.
