Černý Most

Černý Most is a residential area in Prague 14 composed mainly of large concrete apartment blocks and modern shopping centers. The district spans several square kilometers with a mix of residential buildings and commercial facilities organized in a compact urban layout.

The area took its present form in 1987 when parts of three neighborhoods were consolidated and became part of Prague the following year. This administrative reorganization created the district as it exists today within the city's framework.

Street names throughout the neighborhood honor Czechoslovak pilots who flew with the Royal Air Force during World War II. Walking here, you encounter these commemorative names that reflect a shared wartime history.

The area connects to central Prague through two metro stations on the B Line. A major bus terminal near the Černý Most station provides additional transport options for visitors.

The name Černý Most means Black Bridge and comes from a stone railway bridge that turned dark from steam locomotive exhaust. This historical name reflects a feature that defined the area for many years.
