Lidice, Memorial site in Kladno District, Czech Republic.
The village sits on the Prague Plateau, 12 kilometers northwest of Prague, featuring a memorial complex with fragments of original structures and monuments.
German forces destroyed the entire village on June 10, 1942, executing 172 men and sending women and children to concentration camps as retaliation for Heydrich's assassination.
The International Children's Exhibition of Fine Arts Lidice receives thousands of artworks from young artists worldwide, promoting peace and understanding between nations.
Visitors can explore the museum, memorial sites, and rose garden throughout the year, with guided tours available in multiple languages by advance reservation.
The rose garden contains 24,000 rose bushes from different countries, representing messages of peace donated by nations worldwide after the village's reconstruction in 1947.
