Full description

Starting in Staré Město, a guide leads the group through surviving traces of the Second World War, including the medieval cellars of U Kunštátů, once used as a shelter, where private wartime artifacts are displayed. The route continues to Saints Cyril and Methodius Cathedral and its crypt, the setting for the story of the resistance mission against Heydrich and the Prague Uprising.

Reviewers single out the guides' knowledge and passion, and the authentic objects that make the history personal. Expect a fair amount of standing during the detailed explanations over roughly two and a half hours.
