Itinerary

1. Rudolfinum
Meet your guide in front of the main entrance stairs to Rudolfinum building, Alšovo nábř. 12, 110 00 Josefov. The guide will be holding a blue and white umbrella. From here you will take a minibus to Terezín, which will take approximately 1 hour.
Duration: 60 mins
2. Terezin Memorial
The minibus will take you to Terezín. Terezin is located approximately ninety miles north of Prague and just south of Litomerice. The town was originally built in 1780 by Emperor Joseph II of Austria and named after his mother, Empress Maria Theresa.
Duration: 60 mins
3. Mala Pevnost (Small Fortress)
Terezin consisted of the Big Fortress and the Small Fortress. The Big Fortress was surrounded by ramparts and contained barracks. However, Terezin had not been used as a fortress since 1888; Terezin had become a garrison town that remained virtually the same, almost entirely separated from the rest of the countryside. The Small Fortress was used as a prison for dangerous criminals. Terezin changed dramatically when the Nazis renamed it Theresienstadt and sent the first Jewish transports there in November 1941. The Nazis sent approximately 1300 Jewish men on two transports to Theresienstadt. These workers made up the Aufbaukommando, later known in the camp as AK1 and AK2. These men were sent to transform the garrison town into a camp for Jews. The largest and most serious problem these workgroups faced was metamorphosing a town that in 1940 held approximately 7,000 residents into a concentration camp which needed to hold about 35,000 to 60,000 people.
Duration: 120 mins
4. Rudolfinum
The minibus will take you back to Prague after you will explore Terezín.
Duration: 60 mins
