Cool wall; however, I think it has lost its significance because a lot of the graffiti/art that is on the wall has no relevance to John Lennon anymore... Positive - there was a street performer on his guitar singing Beatle's songs which provided a nice nostalgic ambience read more

Love love love the artistry of this wall and how the graffiti and sentiments are not at all cloying but instead heartfelt and an outpouring of emotion for a man and his music that has touched countless of millions of people. The afternoon we wandered by, there was a band playing Beatles songs so simply a perfect moment! One tip- walk on up from the wall and round the corner is a wonderful church of Maltese Knights from the 14th century! read more

This is definitely worth visiting but you will be with 5000 of your closest friends. If you're looking to have less people in your pictures I would advise going early in the morning or later in the evening. However if you go in the evening you may not get the full effect as there is a lot going on and very vibrant colors. read more

I would love to share with you this Hidden Gem in english, as although I spent few years in Prague, I only discovered it recently! Jirka K. had some gorgeous insights about it. First one is, that in the 70s during strict regime the wall was often painted white and the next day was again filled with signs. At this moment, when I was passing with my guests, unfortunately I found out that the popular portrait of Lennon, is already painted over : ( a pity, but he stayed there for quite a few years. Although we do miss John on the wall, now there is a bright yellow submarine that really light up your tourist pictures. Last fun fact from Jirka is, that the wall is owned by Knights of St. John, that approved the drawing on the wall, so feel free to add some of your art, police will not chase you :) read more

This colorful fun wall near the Charles Bridge is a worthwhile visit on a quiet shady street. On the day we arrive it wasn't over crowded. Just time it before the tour groups flood the area or patiently wait until they leave. It is like a flash mob and then they are off! There's only so much time you can spend here but then take time to wander around the quaint quite neighborhood away from the mass of people on the bridge. read more

I loved coming here it's a definite must if you ever visit Prague! The wall is so colorful and filled with so many different and meaningful messages. There's also a man who plays and sings Beatles songs which I find adds so much to this site. Many great photos to be taken here. read more

There are some parts of this that relate to John Lennon and peace but mostly it's been taken over by random graffiti.

We stopped here part of the tour of the town. Such a cool and inspirational wall of art. Take the time to admire the art from one end to the other . Great place to relax, take a break from exploring and to take photos. A must visit when in Prague. read more

Although some have noted that the graffiti no longer bears its original intended message and significance, I believe one can still enjoy the totality of the wall. There are still many visible (and large) works and notes that depict the intended message through the words and images of John Lennon: a longing for peace and freedom in a country that suffered a great deal under several oppressive regimes (from my limited reading on the history of the city). The extensive collection of handwritten notes is perhaps the most meaningful and moving part of the wall. So many people still hoping for peace throughout the world. read more

John Lennon Wall - Lennon wall - Public Art Near Me - Prague, Puerto Rico

A must see while in Prague. It was super crowded on the day I went so it was a bit difficult to get a picture in front of the wall without a stranger in it. The wall does provide an excellent backdrop for photos. It's very close to the Charles Bridge so it's definitely possible to hit these both up around the same time. read more

My first trip to Prague over a decade ago the John Lennon wall was already losing its meaning. This wall begun as a thoughtful protest, but the subject of that protest no longer exists. Now it is really bad graffiti and an eye sore. The original John Lennon picture was painted over years ago. Don't waste your time. read more

Best place for a photo op. Experience was complete with a guitarist playing John Lennon/Beatles songs! read more

Nice place. What a really fine surprise, that I had the chance to listen to a musician, who was singing Beatles-songs :) Only three stars because of the dump tagging, that will destroy the great graffiti. read more

Some sights are meant to be super serious such as certain museums, battlefields etc. The John Lennon Wall is a serious piece of art but it exists in a whimsical kind of way. It is not easy to find even though it's not very far from the Charles Bridge. We are very good with directions but gave in and asked some local girls who guided us to the wall. Take some time to look through the various graffiti which is interesting and very colorful. The won't find a better place for a photo op. I would like to tell you to look for certain artwork but the wall is constantly updated with new graffiti. One more reason why The John Lennon Wall is special. read more

Amazing intersection of Iron Curtain demise and impact of western iconic cultural voices.

Was here last year and enjoyed the John Lennon Wall and the John Lennon Pub around the corner. Went back this year while visiting Prague and was sorely disappointed with both. The Lennon Wall has successfully been turned into the Wall of Pathetically Bad Graffiti. In a year this Wall has been transformed into a Lennon exhibit with some decent artwork to a filthy mess of nonsense graffiti by hack artists. The Lennon Pub too is run by rude girly men and stupid waitresses who should in no way be working in the service industry. We were treated so rudely here by the staff that we left without paying. The staff tried to block the door and force us to pay for food we hadn't even received yet. These folks are crooked, unscrupulous, and extremely rude. Avoid this place at all costs. There are plenty of other really nice pubs, cafes, and restaurants to eat at in the same area. If John Lennon was alive today he'd slap the stink out of these fools. read more

Disappointed to find the whole thing is covered up with a photo of the former graffiti because the wall is being given a "facelift". Opens back up in November 2019. Was not hard to find using google maps on my phone. read more

I've always been a huge sucker for graffiti and the John Lennon Wall is a wonderful place for good graffiti. I mean yes, maybe it has lost its point, but that doesn't make the place any less beautiful. Not necessarily a must-go place in Prague, but if you're on that side of the river visiting the castle, it certainly doesn't hurt to go to check it out since it's really quite nice. read more

John Lennon wall has changed its graffiti many times during the decades but the message is still the same even if it´s not sometimes clear. It´s stop for couple of minutes but I guess it´s worth it. Even if some of those graffiti doesn´t make any sense in connection with John or the message but still. read more

I'm not sure if I'm a fan or not but it isn't offensive in anyway. I just mean that if I was here again or had friends in town I wouldn't be saying "Oh you have to see this" What I found moving is the location as its directly opposite the French embassy and 2 weeks ago we had the attacks on France so Europe is currently caught up in the Je Suis Charlie mode. Outside the French embassy there are thousands of candles paying respect to those who lost their lives and directly opposite is this wall with the words "War is Over". Its very popular yet many locals don't know its here and many expats who live in Prague don't either. I only went as I walked passed it by accident although I had seen it on tour guide maps.What is disappointing is idiots have written over some great original things and some of it looks like bad graffiti. If fools could just leave it alone it would be better. So really it was nice years ago but now its a bit rubbish or blah or ????????????????? Its very central and minutes walk from Charles Bridge in Malostranska. The John Lennon Pub is just minutes walk also. read more

We went expecting something wonderful but unfortunately there is barely anything having to do with John Lennon left on the wall, as it is all covered in graffiti and sharpie signatures. I am sure it was beautiful and symbolic at one point. read more

To me the Lennon Wall has lost all its meaning. I was told by a local that the it was created in angry response by the youth to the uprising of Communism in Czechoslovakia during the late 60s. So instead of seeing "Give Peace a Chance," I saw "Happy Mother's Day!" There's so much going on in the world right now, such as Syria, North Korea, Iran, Venezuela, Israel, etc., and wishing someone's mother a happy day was the best message this person could provide on the wall?! (Yeah--I know. Lennon wrote a lot of songs about his mother. It's still lame.) read more
