Naoki Urasawa's Monster in real life
So, I spent my holidays in Czechia and realized it would be a good opportunity to try and find the real life references and inspirations for one of my favourite anime series - Monster (haven't gotten my hands on the manga yET). After a bit of research I found that @fuckyeahjohanliebert has already done this almost a decade ago and their account has been extremely helpful. I also used the websites that I've linked at the very end of the post and you should definitely check them out as I didn't get the chance to visit every single location. It is honestly incredible how much work this person has put into their research. With that being said, here is what these places look like as of January 2023, alongside some tips I wanted to share in case you decide to visit them during your stay in Prague!
Let's start with the easiest location: Charles Bridge. It is probably the most visited place in Prague and so it can be quite crowded, especially around NYE.
Tumblr media
Next, we have a shot of a tram in front of what today is the Palladium, a large shopping mall. Location: Nám. Republiky 1078/1, 110 00 Petrská čtvrť, Czechia
Tumblr media
Okay, this one was a bit tricky because I wasn't able to find the exact reference for the Tri Zaba (Three Toads) sign. Most sources pointed me towards Hotel U Tri Pstrosu (Three Ostriches) which is right besides the Charles Bridge. However, a reddit user posted a picture from U Tri Capu hotel (Three Herons), and someone mentioned it being a possible inspiration in the replies. Therefore, I took pictures of both and upon looking at them closely I honestly cannot be certain about which of the two served as the main inspiration, maybe it was a mixture of both? Looking purely at the shape of the sign the Three Herons (Far Right) seems to be the closest. The positioning of the three ostriches on the other hand (Middle) is more similar to the way the toads are positioned. If you have any sources I've missed pls link them!
Tumblr media
I also found this detailing you can spot if you are walking by the Vltava River. A thing to note: I could find this specific fencing only of the side of the river that is next to the Ministerstvo průmyslu a obchodu, If your cross the bridge the design is completely different. Location: Petrská čtvrť, 110 00 Prague 1, Czechia
Tumblr media
Now onto the Red Rose Mansion. Fans figured out that the Břevnovský klášter (Brevnov Monastery) served as the main inspiration for the Red Rose Mansion. Unfortunately, the monk that is responsible for the visits was sick during my stay in Prague, and would not be coming back until after I left. You can see the exact room that was referenced for the murder scene in the websites I've linked below. I was a bit sad that I wasn't able to see it with my own eyes but I hope he has a speedy recovery. After all, this gives me a reason to visit this wonderful city again! Tip: Don't be an oblivious zoomer like me and bring cash with you to leave a small donation at the Bazilika svaté Markéty Antiochijské (Basilica of St. Margaret of Antioch). You can get a postcard with the picture of the monastery for about 10 koruna and I'm sure it helps with the maintenance of this beautiful place. Also, there is a small, cozy cafe on the territory and they have really tasty Medovnik cake!
Tumblr media
The Rose Garden at the Mansion actually has no roses! It is actually a Cherry Garden, and can be visited at the Orangerie right behind the Monastery (tip: as far as I know it is only open on weekends and closes at 8pm). During this time of year it is obviously not blossoming however it was nice to visit nonetheless and walking in between the tall shrubs made me feel like I was Nina :p
Tumblr media
As a bonus I wanted to add this picture of a hanging Sigmund Freud that absolutely startled me on my first day in Prague. Many fans have speculated that the character of Franz Bonaparta was inspired by him, given their similar looks and involvement with Psychology
Tumblr media
I hope this was enjoyable and I hope you visit these amazing places if you ever happen to be in Prague! Once again, I'd like to highlight how grateful I am for the research fans have done and as mentioned above here are some of the websites I used:

10 abbazie benedettine da non perdere in Europa (parte 1) - 10 Benedictine abbeys you can't miss in Europe (part 1)
10 abbazie benedettine da non perdere in Europa (parte 1) – 10 Benedictine abbeys you can’t miss in Europe (part 1)
Le abbazie benedettine sono uno dei principali elementi storici, artistici e soprattutto spirituali  nel paesaggio europeo. Nel corso dei secoli sono state più volte saccheggiate, distrutte, soppresse ma hanno saputo spesso “risorgere”, mutando talvolta la forma esteriore ma non lo spirito che le ha viste nascere. Nel mio tentativo di costruire una sorta di Atlante Monastico Europeo vi porto oggi…

В Бржевновском монастыре есть ресторан где подают лучший грибной суп в хлебе что я ел. Я конечно не ресторанный критик и не так много супов в хлебе съел, но этот определенно достоин внимания 😃#brevnov #visitprague #visiteurope 🇨🇿 (at Břevnov Monastery)

St. Nicholas Church: Famous Baroque Church of Prague
Tumblr media
St. Nicholas Church is located within the heart of the Old Town of Prague and built with Baroque style in 1755 by architect Christoph Dientzenhofer. As you know there are tons of iconic churches in Prague and St. Nicholas Church is one of the most visited and well known among them. Also, just next to the church there a former Jesuit college worth to visit. During your time in Prague, St. Nicholas Church definitely should be on your places to see a list.
St. Nicholas Church History
There was an old gothic church on the same site with St. Nicholas Church around the 13th century. This old Gothic church consecrated by the by Tobias in 1283 who was the Bishop of Prague. Gothic Church was built to honour the miracle occurred during the transportation of St. Wenceslas body from Stara Boleslav to Prague Castle. If you make couple of reading about the history of Prague and Czech you will encounter with this legend a lot. The former Jesuit college that I mentioned above designed by the Francesco Caratti, Giovanni Domenic Orsi and Francesco Lurago. It was built between 1672 and 1687, years ago before the construction of St. Nicholas Chruch.
Tumblr media
St. Nicholas Church from outside (Source). Jesuit College Church stood on site until 1743 and served the people of Prague for a very long time. But in the second half of the 17th century Jesuits decided to build a whole new church on the site. The new church designed by the Giovanni Domenic Orsi. Actually, former Jesuits college makes an excellent base for the future church tower by its unique design. You can see it with your own eyes when you visit the Old Town Center. To construct the new church 12 houses were demolished including important Rotunda of St. Wenceslas, old school and two cemeteries were closed. Today, Jesuit college servings a Faculty of Mathematics and Physics of Prague Charles University. Construction of St. Nicholas Church Actually St. Nicholas Church is maybe one of the most valuable and impressive Baroque building located in the entire region. Today it is very hard to believe but the construction of the church continued for more than 100 years and generations of Baroque architects work on-site, fathers and sons. Kryštof Dientzenhofer, Kilián Ignác Dientzenhofer and Anselmo Lurago is a very good example for this generations as a father, son and son-in-law. St. Nicholas Church has very impressive details and the dome is one them. The diameter of the dome is 20 meters which quite big and the height inside the church is 57 meters. This dimension makes the church the building with the tallest interior in entire Prague. As you know almost in every case details matters. St. Nicholas Church is a perfect example of how the details can matter. Of course, I can not give you every detail about the St. Nicholas Church because you need to visit this iconic building of Prague and experience by yourself.
Tumblr media
Dome has incredibly impressive details (Source).
Where is St. Nicholas Church?
St. Nicholas Church is located waiting the hearth of the Old Town Square and Jewish Quarter. There are tons of places to visit at the Old Town Prague; Clementinum and National Library, Wenceslas Square, Astronomical Tower, National Gallery Prague and much more. St. Nicholas Church is located very centre of these building at the Old Town Square with a couple of other major landmarks of Prague. Walking around the is like a tradition because most of the places are very close to each and every street is almost a historical place to see. I'm suggesting the same to you, walk around Prague! If you are thinking to use public transport, you have a couple of options to go to the St. Nicholas Church. For the public transport you can find your option below; Mustek metro station: Line A and Line B Staroměstská metro station: Line A Staroměstská tram station: Line 2, 13, 14, 17, 18 and 93 Staroměstské náměstí bus station: Line 194 Pařížská bus station: Line 194
St. Nicholas Church Tours and Tickets
If you want to buy a ticket to visit the St. Nicholas Church, unfortunately, it is not possible to buy from the internet in advance. You have to go to the cash office of the church to buy the tickets. For the tickets, prices vary between 1 to 4 USD which is very cheap for a place like this. However, it is free to visit the church for kids under 10. St. Nicholas Church is open during the year. Opening hours of the church are 09.00 and the closing hour is 16.00 pm. You can buy your ticket and enter the church 15 minutes before the closing hour of St. Nicholas Church. For visiting the church, I'm suggesting to you to take a look at the tour below. Because these tours are guided ones and can give about incredible details about both the church and also the many other places in Prague. For example if you join the Prague Sightseeing Tour by Segway and E-Scooter tour you will have a chance to discover Prague in a very different way. First, you will drive a Segway or E-Scooter which very exciting. Tour will take around 3.5 hours from 10.00 to 15.00. You will have live tour guide both in English and Czech.

hey!! i found your blog today and i'm in love with it... i saw your post about the brevnov monastery, but i'm afraid i don't really get what you meant in the caption! you say there was a mansion next to the monastery that doesn't exist anymore??
Thanks! Your blog is awesome as well.
I’m not sure if there ever was a mansion. In “Another Monster” and I think the manga too it’s said, that the mansion should be near the Brevnov Monastry. So I looked for the monastry and found the churchtower which we see in the manga/anime, so I new that I should be in the right place. In “Another Monster” is a picture of the burned down ruins of the supposed mansion, meaning finding the actual thing wouldn’t be possible. Once on the hill behind the monastry I looked for something, that resembled the ruins in the picture or the area around the mansion we see in the show and the only thing I could find was this section of land with a fence around it and nothing behind it (as far as I could see). The only other thing in the vicinity are trees, nothing else. Which makes me believe, that the mansion doesn’t exist anymore.

April 23 is the feast day of St. Adalbert of Prague, bishop and martyr
Tumblr media
Source of picture: https://hu.pinterest.com/acatholicp/acatholicprayer-catholic-saints-and-holy-people/
Life of St. Adalbert of Prague
The first bishop of Prague to have been born in Bohemia, St. Adalbert was born Voytech c. 956 into a noble family. He was sent to Magdeburg to be educated and took the name of his catechist when he was baptized. After the death of his mentor in 981, Adalbert, who had grand visions of missionary work and clerical reform, returned to Prague, and in the following year, he became the second bishop of Prague. Conflict developed between the bishop and the duke of Bohemia, Boleslaus II, and in 990, Adalbert travelled to Rome, where he became a monk. John XV ordered him back to Prague two years later, and Gregory V released him from his episcopal duties in 995, after the massacre, at the order of Boleslaus, of Adalbert's family at Libice. During these five years in Prague, Adalbert founded the abbey of Brevnov. Boleslaus I, duke of Poland, invited him to evangelize the Prussians of Pomerania; Adalbert was killed on the suspicion of being a Polish spy. Boleslaus I buried Adalbert's body at Gniezno, Poland, whence it was transported in 1039 to Prague. Adalbert was canonized in 999.

 Prayer to St. Adalbert of Prague
Tumblr media

O God, who bestowed the crown of martyrdom on the Bishop Saint Adalbert, as he burned with zeal for souls, grant, we pray, by his prayers, that the obedience of the flock may never fail the shepherds, nor the care of the shepherds be ever lacking to the flock. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever.
