A monumental 9-meter-high statue, the work of Ladislav Šaloun, unveiled in 1915 on the 500th anniversary of the reformer's death.

The central figure of Jana Husa, with a stony gaze, dominates the Old Town Square, standing as a silent witness to changing eras and a symbol of Czech steadfastness. This monumental statue, surrounded by the hustle and bustle of the market and tourists, invites reflection on history and the values of freedom. Its presence gives the square deeper meaning, recalling the strength of convictions and the spirit of the nation.
