Prague repairs defaced monument to Winton children's parents

A glass maker Jan Hunat installed a new glass board with hand imprints at the memorial at Prague's Main Station, Republic, on February 8, 2020, which commemorates the parents of the Jewish children whom Sir Nicholas Winton saved by sending them to Britain on the eve of WWII, and which was defaced by a vandal last year. On the photo Hunat, right, removes the defaced glass board in the presence of Zuzana Maresova, one of the Winton children. (CTK Photo/Michal Krumphanzl)

                  statue of Soviet Marshal Ivan Konev, depository

                  ***FILE PHOTO*** Statue of Soviet Marshal Ivan Konev is stored in a depository in Mesice, near Prague, Czech Republic, pictured on March 31, 2021. The statue previously stood on Interbrigade Square in Prague until April 3, 2020, and in the future the statue will be exhibited in the Museum of 20th Century Memory in Prague. The Prague 6 Bubenec district removed the memorial after an unknown perpetrator poured red paint on the monument. Konev's memorial in Prague, built in 1980 to remind of his role in the liberation of Czechoslovakia from the Nazis in 1945, has been repeatedly damaged and provoked demonstrations.
