The Velvet Revolution memorial, Narodni Street, rose, tulip

The memorial plaque marking the November 17, 1989, events leading to the fall of communism on the facade of Baroque Classicist Schirding palace (Kanka House) in Narodni street in Prague where it was in 2016 removed from its arcade for safety reasons, in Prague, Czech Republic, March 24, 2021. The bronze plaque shaped as hands showing the letter V symbolising victory was unveiled in memory of the students' demonstration on November 17, 1989, which was beaten up by the communist police. The most brutal clashes took place in the arcade. The event initiated the Velvet Revolution that removed the communist regime and opened the path to democratic changes in the former Czechoslovakia.
