Lidice: Holiday Apartments and Holiday Homes

Lidice combines remembrance, art and gardens.

Culture

On 3 March 1962, the Lidice site was declared a cultural monument; on 16 August 1995, it was declared a national cultural monument by government decree. The multimedia exhibition “And the Innocent Were Guilty...” at the Lidice Museum presents the lives and fates of the residents, the destruction of the village and its reconstruction against the backdrop of important historical events.

The International Children's Art Exhibition Lidice takes place every year at the Lidická Gallery. The memorial to the child victims of the war depicts 42 girls and 40 boys murdered in 1942.

Alongside cultural programmes, the Lidická Gallery also hosts concerts and theatre performances. The Children's Gallery on the first floor offers programmes for the youngest visitors. The interactive educational programme “WHO IS BOB?” is aimed at preschool children and children in the first years of primary school. The educational programme “Building New Lidice” takes place at the Lidická Gallery and in Lidice House No. 116; the pupils build prototypes of new Lidice houses.
