Trams and cars away
The main idea of the modifications is to release the center of the square by moving the tram and car traffic so that it can fulfill the function of a standard square. The City Hall of Prague 6 has previously conditioned the restriction of traffic on a busy square with the construction of a bypass, even in connection with the commissioning of the Blanka tunnel complex, which brought other cars to Prague 6.

Vítězné náměstí was established in 1925 and now several streets open into it – Evropská, Čs. armies, Yugoslav guerrillas, Svatovítská and Dejvická. It had several names, among others from 1952 to 1990 it was called the October Revolution. Among the people of Prague, the name Kulaťák was adopted for him.
