Operation Anthropoid Memorial
- 1-10-2011
- Categorized in: Attractions/What to See
Operation Anthropoid Memorial was erected on May 27th 2008 in Prague’s Kobilysy district to honour the memory of WW2 soldiers from Czechoslovakia’s army-in-exile who laid down their lives and managed to assassinate top German leader Reinhard Heydrich.
Operation Anthropoid was the code name for the assassination of top German SS leader Reinhard Heydrich. He was the chief of the Reich Main Security Office, the acting Protector of Bohemia and Moravia, and a chief planner of the Final Solution, the Nazi German programme for the genocide of the Jews of Europe.

It is interesting as I personally visited the memorial site of General SS Reinhard Heydrich assassination, that Nato Response Forces were formed at the Prague Congres Centre November 2002. Madeliene Korbelova Albright was born 15th May 1937 in Smichov distict of Prague, Secretary of Defense Donald H. Rumsfeld called for NRF and Nato Supreme Allied Command Transformation-Norfolk, VA since 2003.

We visited this memorial (easy to find, the tram puts you off directly at the site} and is very impressive. There is an information board but if you do not read Czech may be a problem unless you know the history behind the monument....worth a visit
