An Invisible Connection Affirmed

Becoming knowledgable about Vienna's role in World War II starts and ends with Hitler. Long before leading Germany to war, Hitler spent several stormy but influential years in the city. There is nothing to remind locals or visitors to this event. Discovering Vienna's WWII history can feel like a classic city stroll, but requires eagle eyes. Some of the war's most visible structures, giant air raid shelters/flak towers, have found their place in the texture of the city, housing exhibitions of applied arts or even a large seawater aquarium. Walk the Mariahilferstrasse, and cross parks and squares with a guide or a guidebook and find the city's nearly invisible scars.

Prague Jewish Quarter Group Tour

Terezin Group Tour

This visit is essential to understanding the complicated history that unfolded here in 1941, when the region’s Jewish communities were deported through Terezin to death camps. It is also extremely relevant to understand what happened to so many innocent people through actual artifacts, children’s drawings, poetry, and other rare items which survived their owners to speak so eloquently for them. Terezin was completely different psychologically and physically from any of the 632 other camps.

The Heroes of Operation Anthropoid

The Cathedral of Saints Cyril and Methodius in Prague’s New Town pays homage to the seven Czech and Slovak commandoes who were killed there during a gun battle with Nazi troops, at the end of "Operation Anthropoid." Trained in the UK, these commandoes assassinated Reinhard Heydrich, the Holocaust's chief architect, and one of Hitler's closest henchmen. The church has a memorial to the paratroopers who hid in the church crypt and prayer loft. An exhibition about Heydrich’s reign of terror is located in the underground vaults, and open Tuesday through Sunday.
