What’s that sculpture? Link had “prague” in it; is that a Holocaust Victim Memorial in Europe? Never saw it before...

It is the children of Lidice, most of whom were murdered by the Nazis in 1942 as retaliation for the execution of Reinhart Heydrich in Prague. I thought the link had the explanation further down the page, but it might be one of those things that goes to a different page depending on how you get there.

That’s probably a memorial to the town of Lidice which was eradicated by the Nazis (people and all) in retaliation I believe for the assassination of Reinhard Heydrich in 1942.
