The Quiet Heroes Brno: Stories from the 1950s

The Quiet Heroes Brno: Stories from the 1950s

About the event

Explore the permanent exhibition The Quiet Heroes, an interactive journey into 20th-century history. Visitors will not only listen to the stories of witnesses who experienced totalitarian regimes but also actively participate in the research of memories using a tablet. The exhibition features non-traditional projections, visual and sound effects, interactive screens, and augmented reality to enhance the experience.

Choose Your Era:
During each visit, you will experience the story of one witness. You can visit the exhibition multiple times and enjoy a different experience each time.

The stories of these four heroes were selected from over ten thousand interviews from the Memory of the Nation collection. They all share a common theme: selflessly helping others through courageous actions, often at great personal risk.

Milena's story takes visitors to the Jáchymov mines, where she smuggled letters and fell in love with a prisoner. Together with Leopold Färber, they explore the partisans and the communist prison of the 1950s.
