Geocache Description:

Na výchozích souradnicích je vstup do jednoho menšího, méne známého parku v Praze 6 - Hradcanech.

Park je v údolí vytvoreném prastarým potokem Brusnice. Z jedné strany byl ohranicen zahrádkárskou kolonií, která musela ustoupit stavbe tunelu Blanka, z druhé vedou ješte zachovalé barokní hradby, které mely vytvorit z Prahy nedobytnou vojenskou pevnost. Zdi mohutné barokní fortifikace byly zpevneny baštami, které byly od sebe vzdálené 160 - 250 metru. Se stavbou hradeb se v Praze zacalo na prelomu roku 1653 - 1654 a výstavba byla približne ukoncena nekdy kolem roku 1730. Kdysi zde býval vojenský hrbitov, urcený pro hradcanskou delostreleckou posádku. Rozkládal se prímo pod barokními baštami. Založen byl po roce 1786 a pohrbívalo se zde až do pocátku 20. století. Dnes po nem zustaly celkem zachovalé náhrobky prímo ve stene hradeb. Na jednom náhrobku se mužeme docíst i o c. a k. telegrafistovi, po kterém uz nezustalo nic, jen tenhle záznam...

Materiál cerpán ze serveru mestské cásti Praha 1 (http://www.praha1.cz)

Po dostavbe tunelu Blanka získá park novou tvár.

Pozor na zvýšený stavební ruch v blízkosti kešky!

======================================

English version: Park is located in the small valley created by old Brusnice creek. It was bordered by gardens on one side, which had to retreat Blanka tunnel construction, on the other side you can find still preserved baroque city walls. The walls were massive baroque fortification reinforced with bastions, which were remote from each other 160 - 250 meters. The construction of the wall in Prague started at the turn of the year 1653 - 1654 and was approximately terminated sometimes around 1730. Directly under baroque bastions was a military cemetery, designed for artillery crew. It was founded after year 1786 and was in service until the early 20th century. You can still see large preserved tombs in the wall. One of them holds the name of K. und K. telegraphist, after which left nothing but this old record...
