The Horse of Troy in Prague

Cisarsky Island in Prague, situated between Stromovka park and Troja got a new dominating feature – wooden Horse of Troy. It was made by graphic designer and artist Ivan Nacvalac who made his childhood dream come true.

The horse is 9 meters tall. Visitors can see the inside of the horse on 22nd July 2007 when it will be presented to the public for the first time. Instead of soldiers, there will be many exhibitions inside the horse, the first one will show the history of the island on photographs.

The horse was made of 12 cubic meters of wood. It weights 6.5 tons and it can be pulled to another place by 32 strong men. The realization of the project took 3 months.
