Ponds Hostivické, Natural monument with pond system in Hostivice, Czech Republic.
The protected area spans 113 hectares and contains three interconnected ponds: Litovický, Kalý, and Břevský, surrounded by forests and wetlands.
The pond system dates back to the era of Emperor Rudolf II, when it supplied water to Prague Castle through an extensive network of channels.
The site maintains educational trails that inform visitors about the local ecosystems, water management practices, and regional natural heritage.
Visitors can access the ponds via public transportation from Prague, with multiple bus connections stopping near the designated walking paths.
A rare fungus species, Haasiella venustissima, was discovered at this location in 1972, marking only the third known occurrence in Czechoslovakia.
