Day trip to Terezin ghetto and Lidice memorial

This tour is very emotionally strong as it visits two sad places with a sad history. Terezin ghetto and former village of Lidice.

We leave Prague at 8:00 and we will enter the Terezin area at 9:30. Part of this tour is visit of Little Fortress - a prison for mostly Czech political prisoners in the Second World War. Then the Terezin ghetto museum showing a history of Czech Jews during the War and especially in this ghetto. We should spend 2 hours in Terezin.

From Terezin we will drive approximately 45 minutes to Lidice.

Once a village of 500 inhabitants. After the assasination of Heydrich in 1942, Germans took revenge on this village. They destroyed all houses, murdered all men, 60 women a 88 children. A children memorial in the area is one of the most touching place on earth. Village was never rebuilt and it is open air museum now.
