Tabor Gate

The Táborská brána is a late Neoclassical gate on the southeastern side of the outer ward of Vyšehrad in Prague. It was probably built around 1640 as part of the construction of the first corner bastion, although a later construction date in the 1620s is also possible. You can reach the gate from Nusle or Pankrác via the street V pevnosti. The façade is set into the curtain wall and features a portal area made of large stone blocks with a semicircular entrance. The story above is divided by four Tuscan columns, with arrow slits between them. A niche in the center probably once held a coat of arms, which is now missing. Above the attic, with its battlement base, is the plainer inner side, with two windows and a roof.
