Prague: Vysehrad

The Vysehrad is the other fortress in Prague. It is on the opposite side of the Vltava from the Hradcany, and much further south in Prague 2. The fortress houses a black church (), several buildings, a garden, and adjacent to the church, a cemetery. The cemetery is the resting place of many famous Czechs, such as Antonin Dvorak and Smetana.
