Founded in 1885 for the town of Královské Vinohrady, it is Prague's second or third largest cemetery (sources differ) with a neo-Gothic chapel of St Wenceslas. President Václav Havel and his wife Olga, Jan Kotěra, Eliška Junková and Jakub Schikaneder are buried here. Few visitors know where Havel is buried.
