About event
After the dark period of World War II, Brno was waiting for the second totalitarianism, this time communist. The side of creeping power since May 1945, so for many February 1948 was no surprise. What followed, however, surpassed all expectations. The Action Committees were quickly dominated by authorities, factories, schools and public institutions, arrests, nationalization, and the whole society began to permeate communist propaganda. Stalinism, accompanied by political processes and a fundamental transformation of society, has begun. During a walk, commented experts will go through forgotten places in Brno, which often decided on the whole fate of Czechoslovakia. The final, the history of the city will be performed by Martin Koplík.
