Quelqu'un a d'abord tracé à la craie, sur la niche d'un ancien puits condamné depuis 1905, l'inscription « Za Johna Lennona » (« Pour John Lennon »), accompagnée d'une petite croix. Une photo du chanteur y a ensuite été ajoutée, puis régulièrement volée ou remplacée, jusqu'à former une sorte de tombe symbolique. Le site n'avait d'ailleurs pas été choisi au hasard : les recherches de l'anthropologue Jitka Kotrlová situent une tradition d'inscriptions, de poèmes et de messages sur ce mur dès le début du XXe siècle, bien avant Lennon. On l'appelait alors familièrement la « zeď nářků », le « mur des lamentations ».<br /> <br /> Le portrait que l'on voit ici, avec sa moustache dessinée et ses lunettes rondes, est repeint périodiquement par différents artistes au fil des campagnes de restauration. Le peintre Pepino Marazzi était notamment connu pour reproduire ce visage avant chaque rassemblement commémoratif. Le régime communiste a fait blanchir le mur à de nombreuses reprises entre 1981 et 1989, sans jamais parvenir à empêcher la réapparition des messages. Le lieu est ainsi devenu un point de ralliement pour des happenings pacifistes annuels, réclamant notamment le retrait des troupes soviétiques ou la libération de prisonniers politiques. Ces rassemblements sont aujourd'hui considérés comme l'un des signes avant-coureurs de la révolution de Velours.<br /> <br /> Sources : <a
