    Spend meaningful time in the Terezín Ghetto learning about the Holocaust and Jewish life under Nazi occupation. Visit the former Children’s Barracks and the Museum of Terezín Ghetto Culture, where you will explore daily life in the ghetto, Nazi propaganda, and the so-called “model ghetto” social experiment. Learn about Zionist organizations, cultural resistance, and the diverse layers of Jewish society imprisoned here. Discover the Hidden Synagogue and walk through the historic streets of the ghetto with an expert guide who provides in-depth historical and human context.

    Mala Pevnost (Small Fortress)

    The Small Fortress of Terezín is traditionally known as a Gestapo prison closely connected to Czech resistance stories. Based on ongoing research led by the Bat El Institute for Jewish History, serious historical indicators suggest that the Small Fortress also functioned as a largely forgotten site of systematic persecution and death of Jewish prisoners. During the visit, we explore both the established historical narrative and new research findings, placing the site within the broader context of Nazi terror, repression, and the Holocaust in the Czech lands.
