The Cihelná brána (Brick Gate) is a neoclassical gate built in 1841 within the fortifications of Vyšehrad, the historic fortress overlooking Prague. Executed in the Empire style characteristic of early 19th-century European architecture, the gate stands as part of the defensive structures that once enclosed this elevated stronghold. Today it forms part of the Vyšehrad national cultural heritage site, a protected area of significant importance to Czech cultural patrimony.
