    Default Czech Republic sites to Visit

    Hi All,
    We are doing a trip next year to the Czech Republic .
    To the Brno / Moravia area .
    Ive never been there before . To be honest Ive never been anywhere outside of Australia other than Vanuatu.
    It's mainly because of my wife's heritage and she wants to visit her fathers and grandfathers town / houses / graves .
    The family history goes back to the 1700's with Mills etc.
    Also a memorial to one of her relatives executed by the SS (amongst others) on trumped up charges in 1941 .
    Id really like to know what sites of Military Significance or Museums are available to visit , while we are there .
    It will be a month long trip , with plenty of time to explore the areas.
    Cheers Rick

    Thanks for that information Nick,
    Much appreciated .
    Here is a brief rundown on my wife's relative (Grandfathers Brother) who was executed at the start of Reinhard Heydrich's martial law.
    Cheers Rick

    Needlessly executed by the look of it

    You are going to Brno? I'm living here! Do you have any idea about the month you will come by? We are having some WW2 battle reconstructions here. We can talk more through direct messages
