World War II in Prague

Explore Prague’s gripping WWII history with a passionate local guide and Czech historian. Immerse yourself in the stories of bravery, resistance, and resilience that echo through the city’s streets.

Our exploration kicks off at the heart of Prague, a time capsule leading us back to the era of Nazi occupation.

Uncover the layers of history with a focus on the chilling reign of Reinhard Heydrich, the “Butcher of Prague” and architect of death, whose demise marked the highest-ranking Nazi ever killed in World War II.

Walk the hallowed paths of “Operation Anthropoid,” the daring assassination that became the pinnacle of resistance against tyranny. Visit the Parachutists Church, witness unique bullet holes, and breathe in the air of one of the most significant moments of WWII resistance.

As we delve deeper, hear the stories of the Czech national uprising in 1945, the heroic Nicholas Winton saving 669 Jewish children through Kindertransports (Hollywood movie One Life), and the dramatic American bombing of Prague in 1945. Explore the former Gestapo headquarters, a place shrouded in secrets and shadows.
