The Lennon Wall or John Lennon Wall, is a wall in Prague, Czech Republic. Once a normal wall, since the 1980s it has been filled with John Lennon-inspired graffiti and pieces of lyrics from Beatles songs. In 1988, the wall was a source of irritation for the communist regime of Gustáv Husák. Young Czechs would write grievances on the wall and in a report of the time this led to a clash between hund

reds of students and security police on the nearby Charles Bridge. The movement these students followed was described ironically as "Lennonism" and Czech authorities described these people variously as alcoholics, mentally deranged, sociopathic, and agents of Western capitalism. The wall continuously undergoes change and the original portrait of Lennon is long lost under layers of new paint. Even when the wall was repainted by some authorities, on the second day it was again full of poems and flowers. Today, the wall represents a symbol of youth ideals such as love and peace. The wall is owned by the Knights of Malta, who allowed the graffiti to continue on the wall, and is located at Velkopřevorské náměstí (Grand Priory Square), Malá Strana. Source: Wikipedia

The John Lennon Wall, Prague has a sister in Hong Kong... visit www.lennonwall.org.

The idea for this website was conceived when the pro-democracy protests broke out in Hong Kong and a team got involved in the creation of the sister Lennon Wall on one of the government buildings in the heart of the protest. Students, citizens and supporters write their messages of encouragement on post-its which adorn the wall. Then decided to expand this initiative into the creation of an online platform with a similar purpose- uniting voices and raising awareness: www.lennonwall.org

Lennon Wall is a wall in Prague, Czech Republic. A similar wall inspired by the original wall has appeared on the walls of the Hong Kong Central Government Offices, with citizens posting colourful post-it notes with their democratic wishes for Hong Kong during 2014 Hong Kong Umbrella Movement
