Private Terezin Small-Group Tour from Prague

 

Take a private small-group tour from Prague to Terezín (Theresienstadt), which was built in the 1790s by Habsburg Emperor Joseph II as a fortress to guard the Northern approaches to the Bohemian heartlands. Learn about the small fortress, which forms part of the Terezín fortification system and was used in World War II as a prison and place of punishment for both military and political prisoners. As a concentration, transit camp and a ghetto, it was used for Jews from the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia, and later also from Germany, Austria, the Netherlands, Denmark and Slovakia.
