That’s a song that reminisces about the time when there was an Austro-Hungarian Empire and Bohemia was part of that Empire, i.e. before the first world war. This the beer hall “Zum Schwanen” which opened in 1850 in Teplice (in today’s Czech Republic) and today it is called “Monopol” and still attached to a brewery.

“From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring
A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king.”
Definitely a renewed blade, look how shiny it is. Who is holding it, though? I have no idea. The sculpture is overlooking the Place of the Republic in Plsen, Czech Republic.
