Wenceslas Square, 51st anniversary of Palach's death, Jan Palach and Jan Zajic Memorial, piety, candles

People lit up candles for Jan Palach at Jan Palach and Jan Zajic Memorial in upper part of Wenceslas Square in Prague, Czech Republic, on January 16, 2020. Palach, a student of the Charles University's Faculty of Arts, set himself on fire in Prague on January 16, 1969 in protest against people's growing lethargy following the August 21, 1968 Soviet-led invasion of Czechoslovakia. He died of fatal burns three days later, aged 20. Some people attached a critical notice, pictured, to Prime Minister Andrej Babis. (CTK Photo/Vit Simanek)
