# Památník Lidice Guide en Lidice Fuente: https://www.geocalia.com/en/companies/pamatnik-lidice The national memorial of Lidice, which runs the museum, the area of the former village, the rose garden and the gallery, and organises guided tours of the area in Czech, English, German and Russian. ## Who they are Památník Lidice is the national memorial that looks after the site of the village destroyed in 1942: the museum, the memorial area, the rose garden, the Lidice Gallery and House No. 116. It comes under the Czech Ministry of Culture and also administers the memorial site of Ležáky, the other village razed in 1942. Lidice was a small village in central Bohemia. On 10 June 1942, in reprisal for the attack on Reinhard Heydrich, the Nazis wiped it off the map: they shot 173 men and deported most of the women and children to concentration camps. The village was rebuilt after the war, and many places around the world took its name in remembrance. ## What you visit The museum has the permanent exhibition And the Innocent Were Guilty…, on the life of the village and its destruction. The memorial area, in the meadow where the village stood, brings together the monument to the child victims of the war, the men's grave and the foundations of the church, the school and the Horák farm. The rose garden, the Lidice Gallery, with its art collection and its garden, and the detached House No. 116 complete the ensemble. The memorial also organises each year the Lidice International Children's Exhibition of Fine Arts. It is open every day from 9:00 to 17:00, except 23 December to 1 January.
