World War 2 Tour: Operation Anthropoid – Reliving the Assassination of Reinhard Heydrich

Step back into the harrowing days of World War II and retrace the steps of Operation Anthropoid, one of the most daring resistance missions in history. In December 1941, two brave agents, Jozef Gabčík and Jan Kubiš, parachuted into Nazi-occupied Czechoslovakia to carry out the assassination of Reinhard Heydrich, the main architect of the Final Solution and Reichsprotektor.

On this tour, you’ll visit three key historical sites tied to the operation:

• Crypt of St. Cyril and Methodius Church: The hiding place where the paratroopers made their final stand, defending themselves for hours before tragically choosing suicide over capture by the Nazis.
• Heydrich Assassination Curve: Visit the exact spot where the audacious attack on Heydrich took place, changing the course of history.
• Lidice Memorial: A solemn visit to the village of Lidice, which was completely destroyed by the Nazis in retaliation for the assassination, a reminder of the brutal consequences of the mission.

This tour offers an in-depth look into the heroic and tragic events of Operation Anthropoid, bringing history to life as you explore these significant wartime locations.
