Wallenstein Palace was built in 1630, but I don’t know if this wall was there from the beginning. There are many gardens on the grounds, and this photo is from one called “The Grotto”. Historians don’t even know why it was built, so I suspect this has been there for hundreds of years.
When today’s photo was taken, this was a mere “church”. In 2022, the pope upgraded it to a “basilica”. As one of the least religious countries on the planet, maybe the pope thought an upgrade to a Czech church would change things in his favor?
A host of the willing few
Gathers at the traitors’ gate
Demanding their pound of flesh
And their weight in gold
