the Velvet Revolution memorial, Narodni Street

Up to 40,000 people turned up in the Narodni street in the centre of Prague where celebrations of the Velvet Revolution 30th anniversary took place today, on Sunday, November 17, 2019. The Narodni street was the venue of the communist police's brutal crackdown on a peaceful student demonstration on November 17, 1989, which triggered the fall of the communist regime in Czechoslovakia. Crowds of people beleaguered the plaque that commemorates the November 17, 1989 events, surrounding it with thousands of burning candles. (CTK Photo/Michal Kamaryt)
