Reliéf lvů z bývalé Slepé brány barokních hradeb, Relief sculpture in I.P. Pavlova metro station, Czech Republic

The stone relief depicts two heraldic lions and remains from the former city fortification walls, now displayed in the metro station corridor.

The relief originates from the Blind Gate of Prague's baroque fortifications, which stood until 1828 as part of the medieval defense system.

The preserved lion reliefs represent the architectural heritage of Prague's military past and demonstrate the stone carving techniques of their period.

The relief sculptures are accessible through the I.P. Pavlova metro station passage, near the intersection of Ječná and Sokolská streets.

These stone lions survived the demolition of Prague's defense walls and were integrated into the modern metro infrastructure during its construction.
