Kampa Island, River island in Malá Strana, Czech Republic.

Kampa Island stands between the Vltava River and Devil's Stream, featuring parks, historic buildings, and pedestrian paths along the waterfront.

Spanish soldiers named this location 'campus' during their encampment for the Battle of White Mountain in the 17th century.

Museum Kampa, housed in Sova's Mills, displays central European art collections, including works from František Kupka and other Czech artists.

Visitors can reach the island by crossing Charles Bridge or taking nearby tram services, with the area remaining open for public access.

The Devil's Stream, a narrow artificial channel built by Knights Hospitaller in the 12th century, separates the island from Malá Strana.
