This is the first thing I wanted to see in Prague. The story behind what happened here is very well presented in the museum before passing into the crypt. The paratroopers are still honored - there were fresh flowers placed at the window (outside the Cathedral) where the Nazis tried to flush the paratroopers out of the crypt. There are... More

Off the beaten path, this was an exceptionally well curated and powerful exhibit and memorial. The history and information was translated and expressed well -- even without a great deal of WWII knowledge it was accessible and throught provoking. Going to experience the feeling of this place is a must for visiting Prague.

This was a last-minute walk before our afternoon departure from Prague, but well worth the stop. The small space has wall exhibits following the touching story of a handful of young Czech paratroopers who were given refuge by locals, but were eventually surrounded by Nazi troops and died in the crypt of this church. Photos and memorials in the crypt... More

This is where the Czech paratroopers who assassinated the Nazi Reinhard Heydrich committed suicide after being found. The cathedral itself is a very beautiful building, and still has bullet holes in the side from where the Nazis tried to break through into the crypt where the troopers where hiding. There is a small fee to get in but definitely worth... More

The crypt of the Church is where 7 Czech Patriots were masacred by the Germans, after fighting a last-stand batte is very evocative and atmospheric. There are photographs and exhibits and the whole experience is very moving. There is also a little bar opposite the Church on the corner of the street, with wartime photographs of some of the British... More

Before I went to Prague I watched an old film that I really enjoyed about the assasination of Reinhard Heydrich, (it was "Operation Daybeak"). The cathedral interior you cannot fully go into here, but you can visit the crypt where the very brave czech paratroopers spent their last moments fighting the Nazis and just outside see the slot in the...

Really good place - very off the beaten track though... kind of in the middle of no where (in comparison to other sites in the city). Want some good backround info before you head there? Read HHhH by Laurent Binet - its a great book that details Heydrich and the goings on at the time. (Though note there are lots... More

We visited this place as part of the WW2 Tour. I found it well presented and very touching. Even though our guide had already briefed us on the History of events that took place there, I could not help but read it through. A must see.

The text explaining the whole story is too tiring to read them all word by word, and I had limited time just 25min before they close. So I got sort of lost half way the story and didnt get the details about what happened, but I was able to grasp the theme of it. Would love more if some other... More
