Vršovice, Residential district in Prague, Czech Republic
Vršovice is a residential neighborhood in Prague with south-facing slopes situated between Vinohrady to the north and Nusle to the southwest. The area features typical urban housing mixed with green spaces throughout.
The neighborhood first appears in records from 1088 as part of Vyšehrad Chapter's founding document. It remained independent until 1922, when it became incorporated into Prague.
St Wenceslas Church and St Nicholas Church serve as focal points where the community gathers. These buildings shape how people experience the neighborhood's spiritual life today.
Two train stations, Praha-Vršovice and Praha-Eden, provide convenient connections to other areas of Prague. The hilly terrain means some streets have steep grades that require good walking shoes.
Two major football clubs call this neighborhood home: SK Slavia Prague and Bohemians 1905, each with roots going back over a century. Match days create a special energy that draws supporters from across the city.
