On February 25, 1969, Jan Zaj\u00edc, who is therefore also known as \"Torch No.2\", did the same.<\/p><p>In November 1989, Wenceslas Square became the scene of the Velvet Revolution, which heralded the end of the communist regime in the Czech Republic.<\/p><p>Today, Wenceslas Square is one of the most popular and lively squares in Prague. Numerous restaurants, cafes and bars invite you to linger, and many hotels are located on and around the central square, which is very lively until late at night.<\/p><p>The Old Town Square and Republic Square are only 600 meters away.<\/p><h2 id=\"t-1638894461486\" class=\"\">Contact<\/h2><ul class=\"\"><li><strong>Address:<\/strong> V\u00e1clavsk\u00e9 n\u00e1m\u011bst\u00ed, 110 000 Nov\u00e9 M\u011bsto, Prague<\/li><li><strong>Public<\/strong>\n<strong>Transportation<\/strong>: Metro, green line A or yellow line B, M\u016fstek stop or yellow line A or red line C, stop Muzeum.<\/li><li><strong>Opening hours:<\/strong> The square is open around the clock.<\/li><\/ul><\/div><div class=\"thrv_wrapper thrv_contentbox_shortcode thrv-content-box tve-elem-default-pad\" data-css=\"tve-u-187473ef722\" style=\"\">\n\t<div class=\"tve-content-box-background\"><\/div>\n\t<div class=\"tve-cb\"><div class=\"thrv_wrapper thrv_text_element\"><h3 class=\"\" style=\"\" data-css=\"tve-u-187473ef723\">Related Articles<\/h3><\/div>[tcb_post_list query=\"{'paged':1,'filter':'custom','post_type':|{|'page'|}|,'related':|{||}|,'orderby':'date','order':'DESC','posts_per_page':'4','offset':'1','no_posts_text':'There are no posts to display.','exclude_current_post':|{||}|,'queried_object':{'ID':662,'post_author':'1'},'dynamic_filter':{'category':'category','tag':'tag','author':'author','search':'search'},'sticky':|{||}|,'rules':|{|{'taxonomy':'page','terms':|{|'727','137','742','247'|}|,'operator':'IN'}|}|}\" type=\"grid\" columns-d=\"2\" columns-t=\"2\" columns-m=\"1\" vertical-space-d=\"0\" horizontal-space-d=\"20\" ct=\"post_list-43458\" ct-name=\"Image &amp;
