Terezin Tour

Highlights of the Tour:

• The small town of Terezín, about 45 minutes out of Prague, reminds a tragic chapter of European history. The former fortress was built in times of the emperor Josef II in the end of the 18th century and in times of war it could housed an army of 60.000 soldiers and 6.500 horses.

  During the World War II, in 1940, the Terezín fortress was changed and converted into a state prison, in fall 1941 into a Jewish ghetto and a concentration camp by Nazis. It was a place of suffering for over 90.000 prisoners, most of them (about 35.000) lost their lives at this place. The others, still surviving, were deported to other European concentration camps. At the end of the war, just 3.800 survivors walked away alive.

  You visit a large complex of the Small Fortress, Museum and National Cemetery. In the video hall you will see a short film about the history of the camp.
