Lennon Wall
The Lennon Wall or John Lennon Wall, located at Velkopřevorské náměstí, Malá Strana, is a historic legal graffiti wall in Prague, Czechia. After the 1980 murder of John Lennon a mural of Lennon was painted by an unknown artist onto the wall and as more people expanded upon it, the wall slowly became a place for free expression of then communist Czechoslovakia.Photo: Wikimedia, CC BY-SA 3.0.
