    Nice hidden gem of a museum. As others have said already, it's worth reading up on the Heydrich assassination before going to visit this national memorial to have a basic understanding of what happened. In this memorial there are a few videos and banners with additional information regarding the assassination of Heydrich as well as the attached grotto of the Orthodox Church where they were hiding. Well worth a visit if you are interested in WW2 or generally 20th century history.

    I highly recommend this memorial to anyone who is interested in history. The crypt is a particularly sobering experience, especially for those already familiar with Operation Anthropoid. Be prepared to remove your hat if you are wearing one and speak in a whisper. Nearly all of the signs include English as well as Czech, and there are free pamphlets in both languages. I have also included a few pictures from Ss. Cyril and Methodius Cathedral, directly above the crypt. I would highly recommend seeing the Cathedral as part of your visit to this memorial.
