About this activity
This tour takes you back through the history of Communism and the struggle against it in Czechoslovakia. Immerse yourself in the culture and history of Prague as you visit the city's most memorable sites. On this tour, you'll visit Wenceslas Square, site of the most important events in Czech history. See the Kotva shopping center, the former site of the famous giant Stalin monument and Jan Palachs Square. Palach, considered by many a martyr to the anti-communist movement in Czechoslovakia, has been honored by the art of his Original Death Mask by Olbram Zoubek. Visit Kampa Island, situated in the center of the Vlatva River. More monuments to the struggle against communism exist at Lennon's Wall and the Memorial of the Velvet Revolution in 1989. Complete your tour at the Museum of Communism, where you will view an extremely moving 15-minute film and see, firsthand, some of the artifacts from this turbulent time. Receive a 15% discount voucher valid anytime at the pub Propaganda, displaying over 200 original Czech Communist artifacts from the founder's personal collection. Let the history sink in as you relax with a famous Czech beer and hearty Czech cuisine.
