Pohorelec means Ã¢â¬Åthe Scene of FireÃ¢â¬Â. It is a small and quiet square in the Castle District in Prague, that burned out many times during its history. There are picturesque buildings around it and many important historical monuments are situated nearby. A sculptural group of St. John of Nepomuk stands in the centre of Pohorelec. It was probably made by J. A. Quittainer in 1752 and it was brought to Pohorelec from the Castle Square in 1846.
