A nice statue in the middle of old town square. I think it would be better to get some information before visiting this monument. Although it is not one of the hottest spots for Prague, I think this monument is actually important.

In the middle of Old Town Square, you will find the impressive memorial to Jan Huss. Huss (1370-1415) was a theologian and philosopher who is regarded as the first Church reformer and was a predecessor of the Protestant Reformation. Amongst his views was that the Mass should be said in the local language rather than Latin and he heavily criticized the moral decay of the Catholic Church in his writings. He was burned at the stake for his heretical thinking and his followers became known as Hussites. His teachings inspired Martin Luther a century later.
