Trolejbusový památník na Orionce, Transportation memorial in Vinohrady, Prague, Czech Republic
The Trolejbusovy pamätnik na Orionce is a memorial dedicated to Prague's trolleybus transportation system, located at the square U Orionky in the Vinohrady district. It features historical elements and installations that document this former public transport method.
The memorial was established in 2010 to honor the trolleybus network that served Prague for decades. The system was phased out in the mid-20th century as the city shifted toward different transportation solutions.
The memorial shows how trolleybuses were woven into everyday life in Prague and shaped the city's streets for decades. It reflects the important role this transport system played in connecting different parts of the city.
The memorial is centrally located and easily accessible by public transport. The site is open and viewable during the day, allowing visitors to stop by at any time to see the installation.
The site marks the exact spot where trolleybuses made their final runs before the entire system was shut down. This specific location makes it a rare record of those last operating days.
