"Liberation 1945" Tour

In April 1945, the US 3rd Army entered Czech territory and, under the command of General George Patton, liberated western and southwestern Bohemia within three weeks. The liberation of Pilsen by the US army is one of the most important events of the city and Pilseners still commemorate it with the Liberation Festival. On the occasion of this year's 80th anniversary, you can take a tour of the city centre called Liberation 1945 Tour. You will see the places that were crucial to the liberation and learn what the textbooks don't tell you. Tickets are available at the information centres in Pilsen and at www.plzenskavstupenka.cz.
