“This pond seems brand new,” a voice remarked, breaking the quiet hum of the park. You’re absolutely right. This is Vodní nádrž Letná. It was completed just recently in the autumn of 2022. Nestled in this little valley, the Vodní nádrž Letná isn’t just a pretty face. It’s a key player in Prague’s fight against drought. This beautiful pond serves as a reservoir, collecting water to keep the entire park lush and green. Look closely, and you can see a small island right in the middle of Vodní nádrž Letná, accessible by a charming wooden walkway. Now, for a fascinating historical tidbit. Remember the Rudolf’s Mine? This 16th-century marvel, built by Emperor Rudolf II, channels water from the Vltava River all the way to Stromovka Park. Well, the Vodní nádrž Letná utilizes this very same system, drawing water through one of its shafts. Though initially relying on the mine and pumps, the pond will eventually be fed naturally by the Hradní stream, flowing from the Libocký pond. As you enjoy the peaceful ambiance of Vodní nádrž Letná, remember you are witnessing Prague’s dedication to sustainability and a greener future, one beautiful pond at a time.
