Background
History
The Lidice Memorial serves as a tribute to the village of Lidice in Czechoslovakia. In 1942, the village was destroyed and nearly all of its citizens were killed or dispersed by the Ordnungspolizei of Nazi Germany in response to Operation Anthropoid, the assassination of Reinhard Heydrich. The monument, located in Sokol Park in the town of Phillips, Wisconsin, was erected in 1944.
