National Memorial to the Heroes of the Heydrich Terror

Resslova 9a, 120 00 Praha 2-Nové Město

Orthodox church crypt where paratroopers who killed a top Nazi official made their last stand.

This guide to the National Memorial to the Heroes of the Heydrich Terror in Prague centers on the crypt beneath the Church of Saints Cyril and Methodius, where Jan Kubiš and Josef Gabčík hid after ambushing Reinhard Heydrich in May 1942. It follows the Orthodox congregation that sheltered them, the fellow paratrooper who betrayed their hiding place, and the morning German forces surrounded the church. Look for the narrow street-level window in the wall as you listen — it becomes part of the story.
