Terezín — Visit a historic fortified city built by Hapsburgs and commandeered by Nazis. Terezín was conceived as a fortress town in the late 18th century when the Hapsburg Emperor ordered the construction of Theresienstadt—named after his mother, Empress Maria Theresa. Nazi Germany took it over in 1938 and transformed it into a ghetto and, later, a notorious concentration camp. During this moving visit, you will see the former prisoner cells, residences of the Gestapo and some of the underground corridors. After visiting the ghetto and museum, drive to Litoměřice, one of the Czech Republic’s oldest and most beautiful cities.
