Schönbornská zahrada, Baroque garden in Malá Strana, Czech Republic.
The garden extends across 2.68 hectares of land, featuring terraced formations, two fountains embedded in retaining walls, and numerous fruit trees.
Established around 1650 by Count Rudolf of Colloredo-Waldsee, an Austrian-Hungarian general, the garden underwent baroque modifications by architects Jan Blazej Santini-Aichel and Giovanni Alliprandi.
Franz Kafka mentioned this garden in his writings, emphasizing the entrance through castle gates and expressing astonishment at its appearance.
Since 1924, the garden belongs to the United States of America and remains closed to public access, serving diplomatic functions.
The garden contains an arcade viewing pavilion called Glorieta that stands out prominently against the Prague skyline.
