The SS. Cyril and Methodius Cathedral, an 18th-century church in Prague, holds a significant place in Czech history as the site where seven Czech partisans, who assassinated the Nazi leader Reinhard Heydrich, took their own lives. Today, the cathedral houses the National Memorial to the Heroes of the Heydrich Terror, honoring their sacrifice and the broader resistance movement. Visitors can explore the memorial, which provides a somber and reflective space to learn about this pivotal moment in the city’s past.
