This is the Old Town Square. “Old Town” refers to one of the four separate towns that were united into a single city in 1784. The Old Town’s charter dates back to 1231, before which it was a trading settlement. This square was the central market as far back as the 900s. On the left, we have the Old Town Hall. On the right, the Church of Our Lady Before Tyn (details unknown). In front of those, the Art Nouveau Jan Hus statue. In front of that, some cars. Sorry. Somebody was filming a folk concert that day.
