Bike To Heaven

Why locals love it

I believe not so many locals know about this spot since it is placed far above our sight. You literally need to bend backwards or look at it from distance to be able to see this lonely silver bike heading to heaven. The bike is placed on a street lamp. The lamp and bike is a memorial to Prague bikers who were killed on roads.

Why you should visit it

The memorial is placed on one of the most frequent crossroad in the city. And it is also a place where one Prague cyclist died in car accident. For many years there used to stand only a white bike tight to a street lamp. Just recently a new, official memorial was placed there: this high street lamp with 4 spotlights and the silver bike.

Special tip

The memorial was created by a local artist Krištof Kintera. The bike is slowly moving and turning around when it is windy.
