Statue of John from nepomuk.
about 30 Baroque statues are installed on both sides of Charles Bridge. Many of these statues are still original. but many do not. One of the most famous statues is St. John of Nepomuk, a statue of a Czech martyr who was executed when King Wenceslas IV came to power. Touching the statue is claimed to bring good luck, and make that touch can go back to Prague.
so many tourists touch the statue of john from nepomuk.

I was there in October but didn't touch the statue. I had more fun just watching everyone else touch it!
