Your Prague tour itinerary

We will walk through the streets of Old Town and former Jewish Quarter to cover several sites connected with the Nazi presence. We will talk about life of ordinary people and those who joined the resistance, but also about those, who decided to collaborate with Nazis. We will explore the story of how Nazis desperately searched the soldiers who killed the Blonde Beast (another nickname of Reinhard Heydrich) and take a tram to visit the church where they lost their lives. The church crypt is accessible nowadays and there's a small museum that still takes mark from what happened here in 1942. This is a perfect tour for history buffs.
