Prague railway station

Praha hlavní nádrazí (English: Prague main railway station) is the largest and most important railway station in Prague in the Czech Republic. It was originally opened in 1871. During the First Republic and from 1945 to 1953 the station was called Wilsonovo nádrazí (English: Wilson station) after former President of the United States Woodrow Wilson. His statue was placed in the park in front of the station before later being destroyed by German occupiers after the U.S. entered the war. The station was extended by a new terminal building, built between 1972 and 1979, including an underground station and a main road on the roof of the terminal. In 2011 a refurbishment of the station was completed by Italian company Grandi Stazioni, which has leased retail space for 30 years from 2002.
Picture was taken during geocaching with my cousin and for completeness' sake it was my birthday that day :)
