Communist Walking Tour in Prague
You will start this trip with a trip to Wenceslas Square, the site of Czech history’s most significant occurrences. You will see the shopping center of Kotva, the former site of the renowned gigantic monument of Stalin, and the square of Jan Palach. Palach, regarded by many to be a martyr of Czechoslovakia’s anti-communist movement, was honored by Olbram Zoubek’s art of his Original Death Mask.
You will then travel to Kampa Island in the middle of the river Vltava. At Lennon’s Wall and the Velvet Revolution Memorial in 1989, there are more memorials to the fight against communism.
Complete your tour at the Communism Museum, where you’ll see an incredibly moving 15-minute film and see some of the artifacts from this turbulent moment, firsthand.
You also obtain a 15% discount voucher valid at the Propaganda bar at any time, showing more than 200 initial Czech Communist artifacts from the private collection of the founder. With a popular Czech beer and hearty Czech cuisine, let history sink in as you relax.
