WWII/WW2 Prague with a Local Historian Semi Private Tour
Overview
SMALL GROUP/SEMIPRIVATE EXPERIENCE
Explore Prague’s gripping WWII history with a passionate local guide and Czech historian Jiri Kluc, author of numerous books on WWII and 20th century history. Dive into stories of bravery, resistance, and resilience that shaped the city during the Nazi occupation. Discover the chilling reign of Reinhard Heydrich, the 'Butcher of Prague,' whose assassination marked the highest-ranking Nazi ever killed in WWII.
Follow the daring footsteps of Operation Anthropoid—this is the only tour in Prague that takes you to the actual location of the assassination, where the story unfolded. You’ll also visit the Parachutists’ Church and see unique bullet holes. Learn about the 1945 Czech uprising, Nicholas Winton’s rescue of 669 Jewish children (as portrayed in the movie One Life), and the dramatic, mistaken American bombing of Prague.
Walk by former Gestapo headquarters. Join this unique walking tour, and let history come alive with every step.
