Malá Strana (Lesser Town) is a district of Prague and one of its most historic neighbourhoods. It is on Vltava's left (west) bank, on the slopes just below Prague Castle. The name distinguishes it from the more prominent districts of Prague on the right bank, with which it is linked by the Charles Bridge. Initially, when it was founded in 1257, the district was called the New Town beneath Prague Castle (Czech: Nové Město pod Pražským Hradem). When Charles IV founded the New Town of Prague in 1348, Malá Strana was renamed the Lesser Town of Prague (Czech: Menší Město pražské). In the 17th century, the unofficial name Little Quarter (Czech: Malá Strana) was used.[iew of Malá Strana from St. Nicholas Church
In 1419-1420, the Malá Strana was burnt down by Hussites. In 1541, a fire severely damaged the town and killed fifty people. After this fire, the city was rebuilt in the Renaissance style, and many palaces of nobility were built there.

The Lennon Wall or John Lennon Wall is a Prague, Czech Republic wall. Since the 1980s, this once typical wall has been filled with John Lennon-inspired graffiti, lyrics from Beatles' songs, and designs relating to local and global causes. The wall has been decorated with love poems and short messages against the regime since the 1960s and connected to John Lennon, a symbol of freedom, western culture, and political struggle, following the 1980 assassination of John Lennon when an unknown artist painted a single image of the singer-songwriter and some lyrics.
In 1988, the wall was a source of irritation for Gustáv Husák's communist regime. Following a short-lived era of democratization and political liberalization known as the Prague Spring, the newly installed communist government dismantled the reforms, inspiring anger and resistance. Young Czechs wrote their grievances on the wall and, according to a report of the time, this led to a clash between hundreds of students and security police on the nearby Charles Bridge. The liberalization movement these students followed was described as "Leninism" (not to be confused with "Leninism"), and Czech authorities described participants variously as alcoholic, mentally deranged, sociopathic, and agents of Western free-market capitalism.
The wall continuously undergoes change, and the original portrait of Lennon is long lost under layers of new paint. Even when the wall was repainted by authorities, it was again full of poems and flowers by the next day. Today, the wall symbolises global ideals such as love and peace.
The wall is owned by the Sovereign Military Order of Malta, which allowed the graffiti and is located at Velkopřevorské náměstí (Grand Priory Square), Malá Strana.

Kampa is an island in the Vltava River in central Prague on the side of Malá Strana. Charles Bridge crosses its northern tip and is connected to the island by the street Na Kampě. It is separated from Malá Strana by a narrow artificial channel to the west called the Devil's Stream (Čertovka), a waterway dug to power water mills (no longer existent). It is supposedly named after a sharp-tongued woman who lived in a local home called the Seven Devils.
