Two goats wander across the roof of Prague’s famous Lucerna Palace – the first beneficiaries of a new push to open up public spaces high above the packed streets of a crowded city.

The animals were guests of honour at the opening of a terrace on the city-centre landmark, whose lower floors hold the Czech Republic’s oldest cinema, a theatre, a music venue, restaurants and an ornate shopping arcade.

“I brought the goats … to have an atmosphere of the farm here, to communicate the idea that roofs should get green,” said the project’s manager, activist Ondrej Kobza.

“Our goal is to have a community garden here, so that people could raise tomatoes, for example,” added Kobza, who has rented a 1,000-square meter space on top of the building completed in 1921 by the grandfather of late President Vaclav Havel.
