For the record, we can't pronounce it either (especially with that pesky "&#345;" sound that Czechs like to challenge visitors to pronounce when drunk), but if it's easier, think of the translation, which means "At the Three Ostriches". The story goes that many moons ago during the reign of Charles IV, a foreign delegation stayed here who'd brought three ostriches as a gift for the big guy.
