At the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, brutal murders and prostitution shocked the capital’s residents. Tour guide for Prague City Tourism Marek Kovář took Radio Prague for a tour of some of these sites, including the so-called “love rooms,” which many, including figures like Franz Ferdinand, would frequent.
