Monument to Přemysl the Ploughman

In 1841 count Nostitz erected on the Royal field the monument to Přemysl the Ploughman. The monument was proposed by architect F. Staumann. It is composed of a stone pedestal on the top of which a plough made of cast iron is situated. In the front and the back of the pedestal there are iron reliefs by Josef Max depicting encounter of Přemysl the Ploughman with the delegation of princess Libuše and his arrival to Vyšehrad. On the left side of the pedestal there is an inscription „ZDE OD PLUHU PŘEMYSL k WÉWODSTWJ POWOLÁN. WZDĚLANY MDCCCXLI.“ ("Here from the plough Přemysl called to rule. Done MDCCCXLI."). In 1945, an inscription was added on the right side of the pedestal: „VLÁDA VRÁTILA SE DO RUKOU TVÝCH, Ó LIDE ČESKÝ. 1945“ ("The rule has returned to your hands, O Czech people. 1945").
