Youth, Bronze sculpture in Prague Castle, Czech Republic.

Youth, formerly called Radostné mládí (Joyful Youth), is Miloš Zet's bronze nude of a young man, placed from 1963 on the courtyard in front of the Old Provost's House (Staré purkrabství) at Prague Castle. It was removed on 5 February 2018 during the reconstruction of the Supreme Burgrave's House.

Miloš Zet's bronze Youth was installed in 1963 in the courtyard in front of the Old Provost's House at Prague Castle, linked to the House of Czechoslovak Children then open there. It was removed on 5 February 2018 during reconstruction of the Supreme Burgrave's House, partly because the children's house had closed and the courtyard was being adapted as seating for the Summer Shakespeare Festival.

The nude was originally called Radostné mládí (Joyful Youth) and stood from 1963 in the courtyard of the Old Provost's House at Prague Castle, where it was tied to the House of Czechoslovak Children then open there. It was removed on 5 February 2018 during reconstruction of the Supreme Burgrave's House, partly because it would block views for the audience of the Summer Shakespeare Festival.

The sculpture sits in a public area within Prague Castle grounds and is easy to reach during a castle visit. The artwork stands openly, so you can view it at any time without needing separate tickets or special access arrangements.

The sculpture was removed on 5 February 2018 during reconstruction of the Supreme Burgrave's House, since the Children's House it related to had closed and the glass annex by architect Josef Hlavatý was demolished. A 2015 presidential office report also argued it would clash with plans to evoke the courtyard's former Renaissance layout, and it would block views for the Summer Shakespeare Festival audience.
