This annual event brings attention to Prague’s vineyards and introduces the public to their history, present, and future plans. It highlights the authenticity and uniqueness of wines produced in Prague. Many of these green areas, some of which are heritage-protected and normally closed to the public boast magnificent views of the city. Church vineyards were growing here as early as in the 13th century, and really took off in the boom started by Charles IV’s order that vines be planted in and around Prague. Over the centuries, however, the vineyards here in Viničné Hory were transformed into fields, orchards and gardens. In the 1860s, the builder Moritz Gröbe bought large plots of land and built a grand residence with a park, after which he established a new vineyard on the backfill from the construction of the Vinohrady Tunnel. The vineyard was one of the few that continued to bear fruit after World War II. At the turn of the millennium it was taken over by the city district of Prague 2, which began extensive renovation of the whole of Havlíčkovy sady park. This saved the 1.7 ha vineyard as well as the prized wooden Vineyard Gazebo, and also saw the opening of the new Grébovka Cellar.
