A plaque commemorating the late Czech dissident, playwright and first post communist president Vaclav Havel

A plaque commemorating the late Czech dissident, playwright and first post communist president Vaclav Havel (1936-2011) was unveiled on the apartment house on Prague's Rasin Embankment, where he was born and lived for more than 40 years, on the eighth anniversary of his death today. Havel's younger brother Ivan (on the photo centre with his wife Dagmar), who still lives in the house, was among those attending the ceremony. The plaque, designed by architect Petr Hajek, is made of resin, with a sheet of paper conserved inside, which bears the inscription I lived here, too, Vaclav Havel. Its unveiling was initiated by Jaroslav Solc (left), a deputy mayor of the Prague 2 district where the house is situated. (CTK Photo/Vit Simanek)
