The Historical Legacy

Valdštejnovo Náměstí, or Wallenstein Square, stands as the heart of Jičín, a picturesque town in the Czech Republic. This historic square reflects the vision of Albrecht von Wallenstein, a powerful military leader and statesman during the Thirty Years' War. His ambition to transform Jičín into a grand seat of power left an indelible mark on the town, making Valdštejnovo Náměstí a focal point of historical, architectural, and cultural significance.

During the early 17th century, Wallenstein acquired the dominion of Jičín and sought to reshape the town into a model of Baroque urban planning. The square was envisioned as the centerpiece of this transformation, with symmetrical layouts and structures that exemplified the ideals of order and grandeur. Under his patronage, the square became surrounded by stately buildings, creating an enduring legacy that continues to captivate visitors.
