IPR Praha: Victory Square

Homepage > Locality development > Victory Square

The new design for the symbol of Dejvice will divert all traffic away from the center of the square.

Veřejný prostor Prague 6 Square Competition

Vítězné náměstí, otherwise known as Kulaťák, does not currently function as a fully-fledged square. It is essentially an uncompleted traffic crossing that puts pedestrians last. For this reason, the city decided that Vítězné náměstí would be given a facelift. The competition proposal of Pavel Hnilička Architekti won an urban design competition in 2018, a competition we prepared at the assignment of the city leadership. The new design for the symbol of Dejvice will divert all traffic away from the center of the square. This will be transformed into a place to meet, for cultural events, markets, public gatherings, or a central monument.
