This tour will take you to places in Prague related to the dark times under Nazism and Communism.
Prague became a capital of the independent Czech and Slovak republic in 1918 and was known as free and liberal city in the middle of Europe. However, this lasted just 20 years, and in 1939 Prague ended as an occupied city. First by German Nazis during the Second World War, and then by local and Soviet Communists from 1948 until 1989.
There are still buildings and places in Prague that were witnesses of our suffering and of our resistance. Most iconic place of them all, which was hit by Nazi and Soviet bullets alike, was a building of the Czech Radio.
