“Ploština. A place with memory (and no memory)”
At the very end of the war, in April 1945, the small settlement of Ploština became the target of a repressive Nazi action. The lecture by historian Ondřej Machálek will present not only the key moments of the tragic day, at the end of which 28 people were left murdered, but also the post-war fate of the place and the course of the general reconstruction of the memorial in 2020-2023.
